The rooms haven't been redecorated since the early 80's and the bed was marginal. this was a queen room and it had 2 skimpy rags for pillows. the room was on the ground floor and a stick was provided for window security. the air conditioner was 7 feet up in the air and we didn't find it till the morning after sweltering all night - afraid to open the window. there was a switch in another room that said summer/ winter mode but it had nothing to do with the stand alone ac unit. it was convenient to the highway and it was clean although very dreary looking. i would not recommend - as it wasn't even cheap.

The biggest hot tub ever! Near freeway, noisy. Near freeway, large hot tub/Jacuzzi, indoor pool (not clean), hot waffles for breakfast.

Traveling with large dogs. Room was great. Staff was great. Breakfast was great. Pool was great. Look forward to staying again.

Date of Stay: April, 2008

Great place for a family. HUGE pool and spa. The management dealt with a power outage at their breakfast center efficiently, and fixed the problem while keeping their customers happy. The motel is older, and is in the process of being renovated. Still, everything was very satisfactory. One of the two nights we stayed the lounge played loud music, but soon quieted down. The staff was friendly and helpful, and took care of us well. (Loved those cookies in the lobby!)

Very busy and noisy location. Parts of the hotel are under construction.

Great kid pool and tennis court. Shower and tap water salty slimy fishy! Third world. It was a quiet nice hotel and clean with a nice pool area but they should be sued for the tap water. Could make someone ill I usually do not complain but this was horrible. I gave my kids a bath and afterwards they felt slimy and smelled like dead fish.

Stayed one night with 3 adults and one dog. I felt like I was staying at the Ritz! All amenities and then some! I will definately stay here again. Front office staff is especially commended for their outstanding service!

This was one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. The room was dirty and smelled bad. But moreover when we got in bed, it was full of dog hair and dirt! The front desk acknowledged that there had been a pet in the room the day before and the maid apparently did not change any of the linens. There were dried vomit spots on the carpet, the microwave and refrigerator would only work when the light switch was on. The air conditioner was falling out of the wall, and the TV did not work at all! I have traveled extensively, but never seen such a horrible dirty room. It appears the entire motel is slowly being run down and not maintained. Avoid like the plague.

I really like the breakfast buffet-very tasty and convenient! There wasn't anything I didn't like. Very, very easy to find. Next to Fred Meyer shopping. Very nice and clean. Free internet access. Great breakfast buffet. Nice employees eager to help make a nice stay. Warm, safe, rooms.

	Date of Stay: August, 2007
The hotel room was comfortable and the breakfasts were varied and well put together. They had little 'benefits' such as clean rags to clean cars and a place to hang stuff to dry in the bathroom that was a nice touch. It was a little awkward to get out of, you have to go through the Fred Meyers lot to go left but otherwise I would very much recomend.

The front desk was burdened with Travelocity's reservation that did not indicate a non-smoking reservation. This was the case with a number of reservations. The staff were courteous and helpful in trying to resolve the non-smoking requests. Unfortunately, the hotel was solidly booked due to a National softball tournament going on in the town. Alot of familes and eservation changes kept the management very busy but they were very helpful. I just didn't need to hear their problems but rather simply resolve my issues.

Very nice, clean rooms at a great price. I stayed 4 days and made good use of the wireless internet, dozens of TV channels, in-room refr and microwave. I found the complimentary breakfast to be excellent--hot and cold choices, good variety and quality, and a friendly staff.

	Date of Stay: March, 2007
Very nice - would have liked a better breakfast options. Otherwise very happy!
