The rooms were newly renovated and looked nice. Very poor internet connection and the breakfast was minimal. Fresh fruit would be a great offering.

Eh

It was okay for the most part however we had someone from the cleaning service literally just let themselves into our room without knocking. There was confusion at check in regarding payment and they wanted me to swipe my card for an additional 190 dollars. No biggie but walking in without knocking made me so uncomfortable and paranoid for the rest of the trip.

We enjoyed our stay except for two things. 1, The lighting in the room is terrible with mostly overhead lights and only one lamp that didn't work well. And 2, the room was dirty in some areas with dried pasta next to the bed. Otherwise the place is decent for the price.

It was ok. The property looks like it has been renovated in recent years and the rooms look nice. The breakfast was almost nothing, just a waffle maker, hostess mini muffins, instant oat packets, and some almost gone cheerios. They did have hot coffee though. Sheets on one of the beds looked unclean but other than that it was ok.

Checkin was delayed until 7:30pm due to shortstaffing and no employees to clean rooms. When I opened the door, the room was not clean. The linens had been changed but there was food debris on the counter and coffee stains on the table. The outer comforter had stains as well. Very poor cleaning and hygeine. I checked the bed for bugs but did confirm new linens, thankfully. The kitchette was in working order which was good. The shower took 5 whole minutes to retrieve hot water (I almost thought it was cold water only and I'm glad I waited). Very limited parking/ arrival after 7pm probably means no parking available. There is no street parking as an alternative. Lights on motel's outside stay on all night and there are no blackout curtains. AC unit is loud. Probably not a good idea to stay here more than one night as a road stop and only if you really need a discount. Bed was comfy despite the light and noise. Will stay elsewhere when I drive back home.

Friendly staff, good location although just off the strip. Clean with comfortable bed. You could see that they had recently did some updates. Finding it was a little challenging at first and parking was a little challenging depending on where your room was. Good restaurant options within walking distance.
