"We really enjoyed our short stay. The central location was our favorite aspect—it’s a short walk to Alvarado Street, which has lots of restaurants and shops, and our favorite, the video game parlor/museum, High Score. The hotel is a large, renovated motel, with smaller but comfy rooms and very comfortable beds. Parking is easy. We’d definitely come back."
