We book the room and prepaid. We check in late around 11pm and they are overbooked. They rush to clean one room but it’s a smoking room. We were asked to wait for almost 1 hour. Off course the room is smoky. Front desk said they will waive the room fee because of inconvenience. I call two days later and they denied saying that and never call me back.

It seemed like a few homeless people were impacting this area…as in many areas. Everyone was very nice, the dog that barked all night next door was frustrating…and we have and love dogs….the room was newly renovated and really nice!

Air conditioning did not work, door seal was non existent as there was a 1/2 and larger gap around the door. Has a WIFI network but did not get any internet access. They are renovating the hotel but have sea cans and dumpsters taking up parking spots. Room was completely renovated but they left the old cigarette burnt tub in the bathroom.

I enjoyed my stay it was accommodating for the immediate situation I am in as well as I love that they are pet friendly and I could bring my dog without any fee or deposit or charge period for a motel 6 I'd have to say they are very reasonable about price the girl at the front desk was really super sweet and friendly the of vice to cope house keeping is actually good they spend a decent amount of time cleaning each room I had observed as well as the people that stay seem to build friendships and it's a little block party outside on a daily some people would say oh it's a bunch of junkies but I do not judge people as we all as human beings have some sort of vice to cope with our hardships in life some choose drugs or alcohol while others choose coffee and gambling or some people choose food or soda and candy we are all only human beings and we all should re center ourselves to remember that fact of life sometimes instead of judge if they are leaving my property alone then I'm ok it's harmless and alot of the people that stay there are very friendly alongside the staff is equally very friendly we will definitely be staying there again . Thanks for a good stay in my time of need and a great price as I'm not very financially stable at the moment. So again thank you.

They're in the midst of a renovation so I can only guess that our room was yet to be renovated. Parking in front of our room was blocked by a dumpster that the crews were there to remove and then begin reloading again at 730 in the morning.

Good location. Friendly service. It was an 84 degree day and still hot at night when we arrived. AC didn't turn on, and staff was friendly but didn't know how to fix it. The next morning a courteous and efficient maintenance/electrical guy named Chris fixed it, as well as the TV which had a plug that kept sliding off the plug in. It felt a little awkward that the walkway upstairs on the way to the room was slanted downward, but it wasn't wobbly so I'm sure its not a safety issue. The room cost and all was the best around, and I'd definitely stay there again as well as recommend it.

Not safe to stay
We didn't feel safe. There is homeless people all around the property, drug dealings happening around the property. Uncomfortable beds. Construction going on to the property that was disruptive to our stay, they shouldn't book the rooms around that.
