My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, despite being very small, were surprisingly comfortable and clean. The service was friendly, despite a minor incident where they tried to charge me extra for 'incidentals. ' The location, although convenient, was noisy at times. The dining experience was good but could get crowded during peak times. Overall, it was a decent stay with a few drawbacks.

The Inn's rooms had some issues like broken fan cover, messed up tiles, and fingerprints on the ceiling, giving a slightly neglected appearance. On the positive side, outdoor spaces for breakfast were available. However, the door locks seemed loose and the overall maintenance was not up to par.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and recently updated with modern amenities like coffee, tea, and free Wi-Fi, which was great. However, some areas looked neglected with a broken fan cover, messed-up tiles, and finger prints on the ceiling giving off a less-than-ideal vibe. The service was friendly, but there were issues with cleanliness and attentiveness, especially when it came to removing empty cups and cleaning out appliances. The location was convenient being next to the freeway and fast food joints, but safety concerns arose due to unwanted guests in common areas. The dining options were lacking in healthy choices and did not justify the cost. Overall, there were ups and downs during my stay.
