The staff was very friendly and helpful. There was a lot of variety in the breakfast buffet - pancakes, sausage, gravy, eggs, yogurt, fruit, pastries. The coffee was pretty good too. Conveniently located near the freeways, but tucked back behind a gas station so I didn't feel safe walking around. The hotel was a bit stinky. The lobby is right next to the breakfast area and the pool. It was hot and perpetually smelled like chlorine and breakfast. My bathroom smelled like a sewer. I closed the toilet lid and plugged up the bathtub, but these did not improve the situation. I noticed water stains on the floor the first day I was there. On the last day, just out of curiosity, I tried to wipe them away. Ewww - they were pee. I'm a bit disgusted that it was not cleaned up despite numerous visits from housekeeping over my four day stay. Perhaps that was the smell.
