“Room was in great shape. Spacious, clean, and well outfitted with a fridge, TV, coffee setup, iron, and AC. I came in really late and there was someone at the desk. Basic breakfast in the morning.”
“I notice some negative reviews, but this is my final of 5 nights here and my experience has been totally positive. First, it was the manager who checked me in, and he was one of the nicest, friendliest people I’ve met. I also met one of his staff who was also very friendly. So positive start. My room is fine! Nice big bed, small fridge, microwave, smart TV, desk, lounge chair, and other things. I notice people comment on cleanliness. My suite was spotless. Yes, there is wear and tear. The hotel could use a facelift, but that takes money. From my experience, the room was clean and comfortable. Even the shower pressure is good. As for security—I experienced nothing troubling. Other guests have been quiet and friendly. I haven’t seen any creeps around. One friendly drunk chasing a roadrunner at midnight but that’s about it. In short, the place is fine and comfortable. Just don’t expect luxury from a 2 star hotel. The owner is nice, his staff are nice and helpful, and I felt completely safe.”
