We stayed in this hotel for one night while on a road trip. It has to rank as the worst hotel on the trip.

The lady on reception was half asleep and spent our check in time yawning. She then appeared again the next morning wearing the same clothes – nice!

We had two rooms and they were both dirty (particularly the bathrooms which contained a pleasing selection of other peoples hairs). The door on our room didn’t lock (we discovered this in the morning when we left the room to check out.

The hotel is also located in a pretty seedy part of town – so walking around the area at night can be quite unnerving.

We would never stay here again and I would warn anyone else against it.

I was traveling with my wife and son on our way from Kings Canyon to the pacific coast. I booked this hotel via the super 8 site because it claimed "newly renovated rooms" and mini suites with sleeper sofas.

Even minutes before we actually arrived, I became sceptic. The neighboorhood is not a good one. Once we were there, it was terrible. The rooms might have been "newly renovated", but that was 20 years ago. The mini suites was just what other super 8's call a regular room with a very small sleeper sofa in it. All this for a really high price. Plus, you hear the nearby trains. The usual super 8 breakfast was also not really usable. During our stay, the spot seemed to be used mainly by utility workes, which, I assume, paid much less than we did.

Conclusion: a rip-off. I'd avoid it at all costs when I am next in the area. The super 8 on highway 99 might be a better alternative (at least the neighborhood looks better). We stayed just because we were to lazy to get into "big complaint mode" for the night..
