Not a high-end hotel, but rather a basic room in a central location and it was comfortable. All you should expect.

Older motel, 50s/60s era, super clean, super safe, great parking. TV is small and breakfast is a "cereal bar," but other than that: you are getting what you pay for, and the online pics and descriptions are accurate. Will stay again. It's a great neighborhood, and you cannot beat the price.

Rooms were clean but outdated. Coffee and stale cereal were the only things available for breakfast.. no milk, juice, or tea.. nothing else.
There was an altercation below in the parking lot that the police had to show up for.
Ok for a bed to sleep in but i would not stay there with family or kids.

Their system charged my card 3xs. Had to wait 2 weeks for bank to refund me. They said they could do nothing to fix it!?
Room left everything to be desired! Needless to say we had originally booked 2 nights but, only stay one. Location is awful. I didnt feel safe.

Not a lot of options at all in this area if attending a concert at The Riviera. Booked this after reviewing mixed ratings. Old motor lodge, dated decor and bedding. Room was clean but this is bare bones for amenities. Desk staff nice. Continental breakfast was the bare minimum; the coffee fresh and adequate quality.

Not safe to stay here as an AFAB person... nothing worked and we left because we felt unsafe and they refused to give us a refund
