The room itself was clean and well kept. The surrounding areas were on the sketchy side. This hotel is a decent budget option for an overnight stay.

Martin, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Very unsafe, we had a crackhead stay next to us and screamed at the top of his lungs from 2am til 8am. Extremely dirty, didn’t even want to know all the body fluids and filth that were on the comforter. Room reeked of cigarettes and like it hadn’t been cleaned
Alexis, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Rooms smell tobacco it was hard to sleep at night was difficult to get the smell out of the room
Gabriel, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Baked in hair on the sheets. Slept on the covers with a hoodie on. Pictures of property on Expedia don't match up with reality. Probably old file photo's from 20 years ago. Surrounding area feels unsafe. Afraid to walk to nearby eatery. Had to drive a block away to grab food in fear of getting mugged or stabbed. Would not stay hear again.
Jason, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Clean room with comfortable bed, fridge & good shower. Good free TV channels for sports & movies. Close to freeway but no traffic noise. Large mall with good restaurants, movies, etc 2 miles down road. Bsasic family owned, updated motel. Reasonably priced and staff was very friendly and accommodating. I’ve stayed twice and will return because location is close to hospitals.

2/10 Terrible

There was baked in hair on the sheets and this made us sleep on the covers and wear a hoodie to isolate from the ickiness. Pictures of the rooms condition don't match up. Probably a file photo from when it was new. Real condition is like 20 years later of the same and now frazzled on the edges. Would not stay here again. Surrounding area does not inspire confidence. Would not walk out to neighboring eaterys without feeling like you'd get mugged or stabbed, took car to go a block away.
