I liked the staff when checking in, he was very nice and polite. I don't like that there was no breakfast not even a pastry. The whole building outside need renovation or at least to be cleaned, new carpets, and update TV and cable.

Welcome to downtown Reno :/

We chose this property over others for the free breakfast. This turned out to be a granola bar or little bites mini muffin in a tiny bag. Night staff was helpful and friendly. Morning not so much. Property is let's say, gritty. Unhappy customer kicked in the glass office door the same night.

Definitely budget, but clean

Obviously a budget motel. Parking easy and free. Decent padding on mattress, and sheets were clean. Towels plentiful. Quite an old property, no surprise. This is a double property operating as Howard Johnson and Travelidge, all one building, one office (other closed). The windows are very thin, so noisy. Non-smoking room still smelled of smoke, like from other rooms or something—there but not all in the room. The breakfast was little bites muffins, granola bars, hostess mini danishes, just store bought, but it’s something to go. Felt fine for the price. Bring earplugs if traffic noise is a problem. Friendly staff, and seemed helpful.
