Ok for the money. Staff was nice. I didnt sleep the first night because of the noise from the traffic. The second night i bought ear plugs and slept better.room was hot and stuffy so i had to have the loud air con on the whole time,which didnt work very well. There was breakfast which was helpful,but not good food. Carpet felt gross,but the rest seemed clean.

Despite being in a room facing the freeway this stay was amazing, and we could barely hear the noise outside. Great beds, tvs, WiFi, shower, in room coffee, free breakfast, and great staff.

We have stayed here before so i had an idea what to expect. Room is spacious, bathroom is clean and well stocked and we always appreciate the space of the kitchenette and “lounge room.” Bed was cozy. My only irritation was is our room was closer to the freeway this time which was white noise i couldn’t block out.

There was no room service. There were 3 of us staying in the room, but only two towels were left. Rooms were not cleaned on a regular basis. The first room we checked into was facing a Freeway and very noisy, with two tiny beds, which was not what he saw on the picture when booking. We then moved to a different room. Again, no room service was available.

I was pleasantly surprised by how nice my room was. The bed was comfortable. The toiletries were very good quality. The room was clean and the towels and were decoratively folded like in a five star hotel. The property is older, but everything was clean and neat. I would definitely stay here again.
