Not comfortable at all
I'm surprised about the high reviews this hotel received. The hotel is very outdated. It's also too close to the interstate. Traffic noise from the interstate comes through the windows.

We enjoyed the night and proximity to Old Town!
This was a nice place to stopover on our trip home from Arizona. We were only in for the night. It was a great place to visit Old Town, you could practically walk to it. The room was nice and very spacious. Only complaint was that toilet would wake the dead it was so loud when you flush. Also, the hot water in the shower cycled between hot and cold.
