Dont stay here unless you dont care!
Several front desk clerks were rude, condescending & very skeptical of the littlest things such as clean towels and change for the laundry machines. They made me come to the office for change 8 times! Finally I went down the street and got change from another merchant. I had to use towels to clean the floors (I dont think the floors are cleaned at all) I asked to use a vacuum and was told she didnt have one. Well I asked front desk manager for clean towels and he interrogated me & said "no, you have wait!" I told him I needed to shower & go to work, finally he told me "only 1 towel." There was only 1 desk worker that was respectful & polite in the afternoons. The cleanliness of the rooms is an entire chapter of its own. I felt like I was getting bitten by something in the spread & covers! I gave the cleaner them back. Who knows how often they're washed. The entire stay was gross. I was in the process of moving and tired so I wasn't looking to change hotels, but I wish I would've. Overall, the room looked nice when I first checked in. Looks can and are deceiving.

4/10 Fair

The floors were extremely dirty to the point that we had to wear our shoes inside to avoid getting dirt in the beds when we went to sleep. Also, the bathroom was swarmed with ants coming in through the cracks. However, the staff was very friendly and helpful. They provided extra pillows and toiletries upon request, cleaned the bathroom with bleach, and provided Raid, which didn’t completely work on the ants but we appreciated their help.

The room was very clean, and I love that they issued parking passes for the people staying here. I would definitely stay here again.

2/10 Poor

Broken toilet
I arrived at my room and used the the restroom. The seating was broken and I immediately went to the front desk to report it as I did not want to be blamed and charged for it. I asked for it to be fixed and the desk personnel told me no maintenance was available. He offered me a $10 refund. I didn't need the $10, just a proper working bathroom. He also told me that no other rooms were available. I've included the pictures below. I also explained to the night person that the TV was not working. It would freeze up every 10-15 seconds. He told me that it was unacceptable but there was no other room available. I ask for the ice machine and he told me it wasn't working. The morning person at the front desk told me that an investigation is needed because everything is checked everyday. If that's the case, why didn't they catch it during clean up? I assume they clean the toilet, unless they don't. The morning desk person was unprofessional. 100% bad visit.

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel was a pleasant surprise! We literally checked in after a day at the Safari Park just to take a shower and get cleaned up before going to the airport for an overnight flight. So we had very low expectations. The area is a little sketchy, but the front desk staff was friendly and welcoming. The room was fine, but the shower was perfect! Plenty of hot water and good pressure. Turned out to be a great idea!

8/10 Very good

The motel was nice. You are by the main street fareway and hear a lot of traffic and sirens. It was a nice small setup. They show a continental breakfast in their photos, but it was burnt coffee and some granola bars from Costco.

The room was non-smoking, yet the bed spread had several cigarettes burns in it. The blanket was stained. The room was in serious need of refurbishing. For $265 a night, I expected more.
