The front desk was excellent with their service. Very open, honest and friendly. The room was spacious. However, the curtains need to be washed. ( I had a smoking room and you could tell by the smell and yellow of the curtains it was such). The bed was comfy and the continental breakfast was reasonable. The only problem I had was housekeeping knocking on the door at 10:45am and then just walking in.
Positives: The front desk staff was helpful and pleasant.
Negatives: Housekeeping.

If all you want is somewhere to sleep it was fine, or if you like camping or cigarettes. If you want a hotel in any sense of the word stay somewhere else.
Positives: Location.
Negatives: Elevator and other places stunk of cigarettes.

Reasonably modern hotel. Though the halls smelled strongly of smoke the non-smoking room did not. The room was spacious with a sofa and chair for sitting. Bedding and bathroom amenities were above average for a 2-star hotel. Very nice towels and toiletries in the bathroom. Comfortable and varied selection of pillows on the bed, even labeled firm, soft, etc. With free Wi-Fi, I was very satisfied.
Positives: Spacious room with nice couch and chair for lounging.
Negatives: Hallways were very smoky smelling, but did not extend to room.

No frills, low cost, clean, friendly, efficient.
Positives: The hotel seemed like it was trying to maintain costs by eliminating unneeded excess.
Negatives: The continental breakfast, described as "deluxe" was nothing more than some boxes of bakery.
Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 06 Sep 2007 rated 7 out of 10.
Nice location, bed was comfortable, nice linens, clean room.1 woman at the counter was friendly, and the guy at the desk was not very nice. The staff at the breakfast was rude when I asked for orange juice they refused to get more; this was at 9:30. The breakfast was to go until 10:00. The hallway on our "non smoking" floor smelled horrible like smoke.
Positives: Price, location.
Negatives: Hallway smelled horrible like smoke, staff at breakfast was very rude.

Adequate hotel. Met our needs for sleep only. Typically we would pick a hotel with a pool, but we knew we would not have enough time. I liked the location as far as close to the freeway, shopping and restaurants.
Positives: Friendly staff.
Negatives: Poor parking.
