It was very clean and the staff was amazing, and the part that put the cherry on top was the security of the area, it was 24/7 and we felt very safe and out belongings in our truck bed were safe as well. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip.
Convenient right off the freeway, safe and shop near by.

A good stay.
Room is as spacious, comfortable and clean as a 4 stars business hotel and it has minifridge, microwave and coffee maker. Surprisely the restaurant (steak house) is one of the nicest we have been. The only complain would be hotel has not elevator (or maybe it has, but half of it its in remodeling process) so we had to carry all luggage thru the outside stairs in a rain weather.

Location off main drag is excellent and hotel is quiet. Hotel looks a bit shabby from outside but rooms are well maintained and beds very comfortable. No fuss with our service dog. Will stay there again.
The room was easily accessible. Plenty of room . The concierge was very helpful, ordering a meal for delivery for us. Breakfast was excellent. Would stay again.
We only stayed one night but the room was clean, and it was quiet. The lady at check-in was very friendly and helpful. The restaurant was excellent, and the staff service was very friendly and attentive. The food was spot on, but a bit expensive.

One night in a border town
The bed was comfortable, plentiful pillow and quiet…just fine for a night before crossing the border.
It's a great place to stay, it's an older building, but it's well kept. Staff was friendly and helpful. They have a great steak restaurant called Caracu with an upscale menu. Guaranteed you'll enjoy.
