A very poor motel, not really a hotel at all. The room smelled bad, there were bed bugs, and the refrigerator was missing parts. The neighbor in the next room is a tattooed old lady who goes out without leashing her dog... Everything is a very bad and bad experience. Families with children are absolutely devastated. I discovered a problem as soon as I checked in. I immediately contacted Ctrip to cancel the stay, explaining that the hotel environment did not match the pictures and description. But the answer given was that there was no problem with the hotel. After repeated negotiations, the result was that the fee on the day of check-in would not be refunded, but the fees for the following days would be refunded.

This time a lot of things were not working right. The sink in the bathroom had no hot water. The bathroom flooded after I took a shower. The phone didn’t work. The girl that checked me out was not very nice. She was to busy on her personal phone. But the times I stayed before were nice. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. I think her name was Sheri😊

Very old building. Jacuzzi was closed. Room smelled so much like cigarettes. Dirty tub. Would not stay here. The price was too high for this rundown hotel.

This place is obviously recently renovated, but in a half-assed way that leaves the old, worn-out feel. Floors are fake wood, but very obvious and not cozy at all. Bathrooms still have rust in the tubs, and are very small. If you need to stay in the area cheaply, it's generally a good deal, but I wouldn't want to stay here for more than a night or two.

It was excellent for the price. The front desk girl was extremely helpful and friendly. The hotel was just next to the freeway and in a bit of a sketchy area with a gas station in the same parking lot so I felt a little uncomfortable there. There were sketchy people, seemingly homeless, hanging around behind the gas station in the parking lot nearby when we pulled in. The phone in my room was not plugged in and the front desk girl said they didn't finish updating the phones in our half of the building yet. So I suppose that means they have fixed that now, but it was definitely a little creepy that the phone didn't work in our room while we were there. There was also two TVs in our room, one in the living room area and one in the bedroom, but we only had one set of remotes. Overall, it was definitely a low-end hotel, but it was cheap and NO bed bugs, so I would stay there again if I need a cheap stay in the area. It seems like they were actively making improvements to the hotel so regardless of the location, I think they are trying to make it better. The tub/shower was definitely nice and big.
