Yes the room was clean and stocked with all amenities!! First off.. Dakota, the front desk clerk was very nice.. organized.. and very helpful!! He and I worked 2gthr to get everything worked out on my reservation for check-in. All of the staff that works at this location as well as the Varsity North staff are always extremely kind and curtious.. and work tirelessly toward getting their patrons reservations etc.. taken care of.
Great place! Can’t beat the price and was right near stores and fast food places for convenience. Check-out was nice; just leave the key card in the room and don’t need to do anything else. Bear in mind that the check-in spot is a one or two minute drive from the place (check your instructions), but you only need to show up there for check-in. Would stay here again!
Our stay at Valley View at King Oscar was a perfect road trip stop. The room was clean, and the property felt secure. While checking out at a different facility was a bit confusing, everything went smoothly. Despite our late arrival, the desk lady was welcoming and kind. Overall, a great and comfortable stop!
The kitchen was very useful for saving money. I had to bring all the kitchen equipment though they didn’t even ave silverware.
I felt very secure and it was quiet and centrally located.
Was and ATM, Is a clean, quiet, and affordable motel. Perfect spot for a quick getaway, or even a longer stay. Most staff isn't onsight, but that also makes you feel more comfortable, and independent. Still had adequate maid service, with the emphasis on not disturbing guests.

The room was clean and had a gated entrance. No on-site staff, had to check in at their other property a few miles away. First room, the toilet didn't flush so we had to go back to other location to get another key for another room. Bed was kind of small, only a full size bed located right in the middle of the room so not much of a walkway. Staff at the other location was nice and it was a nice room for the price.

The building and the room was clean,fluffy and absorbenant towels were provided but the bathroom sink had a big crack in it and the drain was clogged, it took several minutes for it to drain after only brushing my teeth. kitchenette but no preparation space whatsoever and only one very small trash can so anyone staying more than one day will need daily room service. If I could, I would give this facility a 2.5 overall rating for several other reasons as well: I made my reservation in advance and the front desk was aware, they had a stack of card Keys ready to be distributed, however the room was absolutely freezing. I stayed there during winter weather so it's expected to be cold but you would think that they would at least turn the heat on. The floors were bare except one small rug that only covered the area by the door and when I asked I was told only rooms on the first floor were available, so another reason for them to make sure that the rooms that were going to be occupied were warm. There was a wide enough space in the door jamb to see light from outside so I stuffed several Kleenex to stop the cold air coming through, the bed was right next to the front door and only a sheet and a very thin blanket were provided. An additional blanket would have helped. I arrived the room was 61°, I turned the heat on and it took over 2 hours for the room to get warm. Except for the area near the door the room stayed at a comfortable temperature during the night.
Never saw a “hot tub” the “pool” was a concrete patio with sun chairs. The bed was weirdly small and hard. (But the room was very clean) The shower curtain is about 4” too short and the floor is dangerous when wet. The strangest thing was trying to check in. You have to drive to an entirely different location several miles away to get a gate code and door keys. They are located in a trailer behind a chain link fence that was difficult to locate and in a sketchy area.
The property itself was fine it was a nice room. There was a very nice woman on the property but she wasn't really available officially. They had nobody there except on Friday and Saturday I think for several hours. It was merged with another motel. You had to go to the other motel to register for the motel I stayed in. Fortunately I ended up at the other one first and registered. It was dark I do not drive in the dark I had to find my way which was not hard in a town I'm not that familiar with. I drove over to curbs I think. Then it was a locked facility which is good but I had some sort of trouble. The fact that Expedia did not tell me that I had to go to another motel to get into the motel I stayed in is absolutely horrifying. I've never encountered anything like this. So the motel was good but the experience and having to go to another place first was horrible.

Decent, clean motel. Good location. Gated property. The property also has long term leases so you are staying in someone else’s neighborhood - which is strange, but no issues at all. My only complaint about the room itself is the AC pumped out hot and humid air. Turned it on before going on a walk and came back to an 80+ degree room.
Another complaint is the check in process. Had to check in at a different location blocks over. This took awhile because there is one over worked person running the front desk for two different properties. Stood in line for 30 minutes or so. She was very nice and apologetic about the wait.
I’d take this property again over the Motel 6 nearby.

The lady at front desk, a I believe her name is April, has no customer service skills she obviously doesn't like her job. She spends her day out smoking cigarettes and is rude if you interrupt her. The office is not on site and very inconvenient . There are ants everywhere in the rooms. The rooms are tiny , no microwave , and you can hear everything from the rooms around you .
One good thing is the housekeeping staff where kind and complimentary .

The property itself is nice and comfortable. However, Expedia and the property did not say you had to go to another motel to check in; when I arrived it was dark and I do not drive in the dark but I did. It was horrifying to not just get to your motel and go to sleep. We should have been informed. A nice woman named Tina did show up and help me but no one was in the office, although there is partly on the weekend now. It has a gated fence and push buttons etc. Things are not clear -- I was in C106 but hard to see the C, D etc. It has very nice washing machines. The water pressure in shower is so low I could not get my washrag wet. I could not figure out the remote but I never can. Please put a notice up that explains how to use 2 remotes. I could not watch TV much because I could not get it to work. All in all, the facility is nice, good location, but to not be told that you had to drive to a new motel after checking in to another was horrible. You need a full time or 2 part time people on the property to help...you could get people for free rent I think.

BEWARE!!!!! Read to the end! The room was newly renovated. It was clean and comfortable. The photos show a kitchen with a fridge and stove—NO MICROWAVE—and nothing with which to cook on the stove, so bring your own pot for boiling water and dishes if you want to use it. Pool is closed I think- I didn't try. NOW- CHECK-IN???? You must go across the freeway to a very sketchy part of town to find an obscure trailer that is in front of a caged-off area- do NOT go around the building- it feels very unsafe- and look behind the tree where you will find a trailer that has a banner labeled office. There you may find a person- or not- and don't bother to call because if she isn't available to answer, her mailbox is full and there is NO HELP for you (and don't bother to call Expedia- they can't help you.) It took us an hour to figure out how to get our keys. GOOD LUCK!
