I was traveling to move my son into UC no space for 2 cars and when asked about accommodation still none even offered to pay for it and had to park on the outside where there’s rvs and tents hopefully my vehicle isn’t stolen.. Wouldn’t recommend due to safety of vehicles having to be parked out of our sight.. Bad business..

It was OK nice TV the beds were not so good. The shower leaks and needs a little updating only one soap. The pool water smells and is cloudy needs to be serviced.

Property located in bad area. Homeless people all over property. To check-in property used kiosk with “live” girl trainee in Philippines who clearly was having problems with our check-in while we stood in 35-degree temperature for about 20 minutes while she attempted to help us. Volume from kiosk was blaring with no means to decrease volume. After entering room found nice large FILTHY bathroom which had dried urine on seat, sink with dried coffee and floor that had not been swept in a while. Shower curtains do not reach floor so shower water went all over floor. Cleaners did not touch bathroom at end of first day. They only straightened beds and emptied bedroom trash but not bathroom one. Although newly renovated not worth the low price to stay there.

Location was ok, room is dated and half the place caught on fire which is scary. Pretty expensive for what you get but pool was really nice and indoors. Staff was nice, bed was really really worn out to the point of a large pit on one side. But overall it was ok, no bugs so thats good.
