Staff was kind. Hotel was very dated. The carpet was disgusting but everything else was clean. They put us in the back and it was quiet except you’re right next to the train tracks. I heard the trains honking and going by all night. Thankfully I just turned on white noise and did my best to sleep. Prob will not stay here again.

One of my worst hotel experiences ever. The restaurant isn’t actually open. Our room keys locked us out of our room after we put all our stuff in it. The neighbors were yelling and fighting late at night and even after multiple complaints were made the staff didn’t handle the disturbance but instead moved us to a different room at 1am. At least they did something I guess. Not nearly as nice as was made to look by photos. Don’t reccomend.

good location, better than average (Best Western) breakfast. The rooms are old, not updated. We did not like the smell (nothing awful or annoying, just slight not pleasant odor when entering a room). Still -- a pretty good option on this area and less expensive than Best Western Coyote Point.

Train comes by often and blows loud whistle/horn. I like getting up early so no problem, but others may not appreciate it lol. Breakfast eggs with cheese and bell peppers were AWESOME!!! OJ was orange water lol. The $15 per night parking was a surprise I did not see on Expedia. I would totally stay again, but I'd bring my own OJ. Oh and no microwaves in room and fridge has no freezer section. Overall, super happy with stay. Service and workers there were EXCELLENT!!!!
