It is not a new motel, and I was disappointed that there wasn't a pool, but when I booked, I didn't check. The room itself was clean and well-kept. Minimalist in decor. I usually bring items to make it more homey and cozy, so I appreciated that I didn't have to work in a color scheme with poor taste. The staff was helpful and efficient at check-in. I didn't need them for anything else. The area around the motel was dirty and a little blighty. Businesses not in business, and some homeless individuals. I wouldn't have felt comfortable walking around the neighborhood. It was convenient to get to the freeway, places to eat, and some shopping by car.

The hairdryer was in pieces and unusable and the door didn’t close properly so we had to brace a chair against it. Other than that the room was clean and a decent price.

Not worth the money

Room was in terrible condition. The shower sprayed all over the ceiling and had horrible pressure. The neighborhood was very ghetto. Ive stayed here before but it has really gone downhill.
