The lobby needs an update. It looks as if it’s stuck in the 70’s. The parking was terrible and limited. There were questionable people hanging around outside. The whole property could really use an update. We didn’t even stay and went to a different hotel.

Decent for the price

Friendly environment. My room had a leak on the floor under the sink. Close to where I needed to be but a little dated in the overall decor. Good enough for me but would probably not bring my wife and kids.

This is a budget-friendly option, which turned out to be surprisingly good. The room (we had king bed room) was unusually big! Usually you barely can fit between beds, but in this room you could dance. The bed was enormous. There was a table for eating which again was surprisingly convenient and easy to seat at. The room was clean, the staff friendly and there is Albertson next door and a river trail within a walking distance. It is not flashy, but for the price you get a very good stay.
