"The gentleman at the check-in was wonderful. The room was clean and well maintained. The only concern we had was where the toilet paper holder was placed. You had to be a contortionist to be able to reach it. They gave us ear plugs because of the location of the hotel so near to the freeway, but we did not need them because the noise was not a problem for us. Nice place to stay."
