The microwave and small fridge was home away from home essential provided. The lighting of the room and features of light in the bathroom and sleeping area was a highlight for me.
It was a little noisy in the morning from guest yelling or talking very loud like 6am. But other than that. It was delightful stay.

Very clean, quiet building, accommodating staff, plenty of parking.
Only issue is the cars in line for In N Out block your way into the parking lot if line is very long, so in evening we had to wait 5-10 min to get into the lot. No issues going in at check in and no issues exiting.

Loved the size of the room, the breakfast, location. Close to many restaurants fast food places and freeway. My kids loved the hotel including all the space and breakfast. Very EASY to get around in and out traffic just go around so obvious not sure how other people couldn't figure that out!
Didnt like the front desk didnt remind me to request housekeeping. Didnt like the rude girl at the desk who thought she was doing me a favor giving me towels so i could bath my kids. I paid for the room and she should do her job without eye rolling or scoffing. I was gonna yell at her as she truly deserved it but decided not to because I am a better human than her. Did not let that rude front deak clerk ruin my stay.

Having an in-n-out burger 200 ft from the front door was very convenient. Good location just off the freeway too
The drawback to having an in-n-out 200ft from the front door is that getting in and out of the parking lot can be interesting at times.

Everything was very clean, and in working order. The bed was comfortable and the room quiet. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast and appreciated all the food options.
The bathroom was small, with very little space to put one's toiletries. The kitchen was disappointing, with no utensils, or supplies. Not even a roll of paper towels, which would have been nice.

It was very neat and tidy. And the TV and the fridge were a nice touch! I also liked that, being on the first floor, I could see out but no one could see in.
The bed was WAY too high (and I'm 5'7"). When my feet dangle over the floor, that feels awkward.

Missed breakfast, but have had at other locations, Awesome always a belly filler
Have no complaints, why do you ask a question that has no salt to it? People were born whining about there comforts, but you really won’t like my answer
