Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Check in process was pretty unpleasant and awkward. I gave them my card that they charged a $100 as a deposit to and instructed me to come back to checkout in person so they can refund me the money. Upon checkout they argued with me about the deposit until they re-read the receipt they gave me when they charged my card and then gave me my money back and acted like it was my fault? Very strange to stay at a location where it seemed I was a massive inconvenience. Room was smelly and the shower would not drain. We alerted the front desk who said they would send someone but no one ever came. So we weren't able to shower during our stay. Please note that there are also no provided hangara and they do not have any hangers or iron to borrow during your stay. Pretty easy location with access to the freeways and free parking though?

Worst hotel ever. The owners were extremely rude after checking in late. Checked in late due traffic threw my spouses id on the desk. At 8am the next morning was asking us to check out because of bed bugs and insects in the room and we asked to change. Never again
