Clean room! Lady who check us in was helpful did a quick upgrade. Nice and quiet area. When I ask why the room didn't get service next day a guy told me I have to call and request it. Very awkward!I just ask for 2 more towels and left. You shouldn't ask for service, it should have been included!

Room smelled like cigarettes smoke. I asked to be accommodated by any way and they mentioned there nothing they could do. When I woke up the following morning everything on me smelled like the room. It was supposed to be a non smoking room.

I got room 106. It reaked with cigarette smell and they tried to cover it with Lysol. The walls were scratched, baseboards missing through out the whole room. Linens were horrendous. I stayed here the week before and got room 212 and it was ok.

Sunset Motel is an affordable option located near the bus line and various restaurants. I had a very quiet and secluded room (207) so fortunately I did not hear other neighboring rooms which is a plus. The bed was very comfortable too. The furniture and decor is very dated which could use a good renovation. The A/C & heat worked well in the room. The biggest disappointment was no hot water to take a shower during my entire stay.
