New, clean hotel. The rooms are very small and the crowd consists out of very young people which gives it a "hostel feel". It is located near a strip mall with decent food and bars but the area is not good. It's loud (from the airport) and not very clean. I stay in TJ every other week and only picked this hotel because my standard spots were all booked out. If I don't have to, I won't book here again.

Friendly staff. Check in was a breeze, though I did get in late. My room was clean and near a good bit of things. Including a Starbucks in the parking late. Good choice for a 1-2 night stay.
