I would definitely stay at this property again due to the property being clean safe friendly staff who did meet all my needs. There only suggestions I have is including parking fee in the total amount of fees charged instead of pulling from the deposit. I will definitely be staying here again.

Good side of highway 99. Pubes in bathroom. Drapes torn and one cigarette hole. Room appeared clean, smelled slightly of pet. Tub appeared to have slight ring. Shower head doesn't fire all holes. One glass had fruit juice debris. Ceiling above heater vent looked smokey. Value for price is acceptible but I will pay a little more for mych higher quality next time.
