The room was in good condition and the staff seemed helpful enough.
Modern amenities. Pleasant decor. Some traffic noise. Friendly manager gave discount due to stay near surgery center (1 block). TV sound did not work and radio could not set time.
Very small, i paid 275 for 2 nights and i feel like that shouldn’t have been more than 75-85$ a night. Lamp in bathroom has no cover, you can see the wires, not safe & i stayed there with my baby. Limited parking. Indian looking man in the front made my checking in horrible and complicated. Never staying here again.

Disliked: Room comfort
Fan in bathroom was horribly loud and came on with the light so we used a flashlight to avoid turning the fan on. Person in room next door turned their fan on during the night and the noise in our room was horrible. We left as soon as we could in the morning.
Also, there was no WiFi
Heater not working in Dec. Room very small. No coffee maker in room.

Screwed out of $150
There was an open attic in the room. They refused to give me a refund because I washed my hands when I came into the room, before noticing the attic.
I reserved their most expensive room at 6pm, arrived at 6:30pm, and left by 7pm. So they did not lose any business over me, and they had 4 other identical rooms vacant, and more cheaper rooms.
Very disappointing stay – poor cleanliness and customer service
I had a very unpleasant experience staying here. The entire property smelled strongly of curry everywhere you went — the hallways, office, and even inside the room. On top of that, the air conditioner looked like it was from the 1970s and barely worked, which made the room uncomfortable.
Cleanliness was also a major issue. There was hair throughout the room — on the floors, in the towels, and in several areas that clearly had not been properly cleaned. The room also had a noticeable moldy smell.
The customer service experience was equally frustrating. I called the front desk to ask if I could pay for one additional hour before checkout, but the fee they quoted did not match the hotel's own policy. It felt like I was being misled. They also refused to handle it over the phone and insisted I physically come to the desk, which made no sense given the situation. There was no attempt to be accommodating or helpful.
Overall, the lack of cleanliness, unpleasant smells, outdated equipment, and poor customer service made this a very disappointing stay. I would not recommend this place
Really Bad Place! My computer and phone were hacked within 1 hour of me leaving there. DO NOT STAY HERE! I wanted to leave leave the first day, owner said I had to stay 2 nights... ( I payed for 7 nights). Then as I packed my truck and waited for my refund receipt the police showed up. He lied and said I would not leave his property. The police could see I was upstanding citizen and there was no problem. Thank You Mountain View PD!..The wife is just as psycho. Stay Away! Room had a microwave, fridge, ac unit all original from the 70's. The counters clean but the floor was FILTHY! Really bad. I used there towels to mop the floor. Towels were super ruff and dirt stained. Shower curtain stained and dirty... No secondary door lock either and when I woke from the first night my door was unlocked! Do yourself a favor and read the other reviews too... I wish I did!
HORRIBLE.. BED.. SMELL OF THE PLACE.. CUSTOMER SERVICE.. HORRIBLE.. so bad that they wouldn't even call back Hotels.com when I complained.. THE WORST PLACE EVER!!! I'd sleep in my car before staying there again!!!
SMALL SMALL SMALL ROOMS. Shower head at my chest - shower stall only 4 inches wider then me. Could not give a detailed receipt. $350 for a $50 room. Best way to describe it is a spruced up Bates mote.
When I arrived the owner was very rude to me, saying that he only had a room with two beds and would I please ensure that I only used one of them! then the next night, when I had to go and get my room key re-set, his wife tried to make out that I had only paid for one night when I had paid for three. Very expensive for low quality accommodation.
basic hotel - only bed tv fridge microwave work - towels have holes and black spots and old, just 1 pillow, no breakfast, bath accessorie minimal. very costly compared to other hotels in the neighborhood.

The listing showed check-in ending at 11pm, I got a call at 9pm informing me that check-in was ending at 10pm told them this wasn't what the site was and wouldn't be able to make it. So they tell me that they are going to give my room to someone else. They did, even though I paid for it services were not delivered.
