    The hotel could use a stand alone computer for guests with a printer. I needed to print my airplane boarding tickets.

    This hotel is right by the freeway which is nice, and the hotel itself is very clean and affordable to stay in. The complimentary breakfast is also great, and the staff was very welcoming to me and my family when we checked in. I would stay here...

    Great staff, Robert (I think) was amazing. Only real issue was that there was nearly no conditioner, and no body wash at all in the communal bottles. Not a huge deal because there was plenty of shampoo and hand soap, but just as a heads up.
