Shady Clientele
As with any location, please use caution if you leave your room at night - and make sure your doors and windows are locked securely. There have been complaints of shady goings-on in the parking lot and corridors after dark.
negative:
Dirty and Broken
You may find housekeeping has missed your room - perhaps for quite some time. The sheets occasionally have hair on them, floors are not always vacuumed, there are stains throughout, bathroom doors may not close all the way, and shower heads are very low. It may smell strongly of cigarettes. Best bet: Ask to see the room before you pay if possible.
negative:
No Pool
Don't get your hopes up too high for that refreshing dip in the outdoor pool. You'll most likely find it's been converted into a "garden" area, complete with assorted garbage strewn about. As an alternative, Turlock Lake State Recreation Area is less than a thirty-minute drive away if you really need a swim.
