Our room was ok, clean and served the purpose. Sadly they put us in the side facing freeway and the sound of the cars swooshing by didn’t make for the best night of sleep. They have a cute theme and aesthetically tried. The bedding is basic we were both cold with not much to pull up -thin blankets. The staff wasn’t particularly warm and welcoming or eager to help. We frequent the area often decided to give this a try but honestly a little disappointed. When I booked the room it said included breakfast only to find out it was a not so good donut a piece of fruit and juice. Needless to say found breakfast elsewhere. Hampton Inn is just around the corner, nearly the same price - hot breakfast and better experience for the money.

Generally, we really enjoyed our short stay! The pool/plaza area was lovely, check in was easy, we liked the comfy chairs both inside and just outside of the room. My only caveat was on a cool, windy evening, the bartenders refused to close the front doors, making the lounge unreasonably cold and uncomfortable. Definitely changed our minds about staying for a second drink and food.

We were initially placed by room that had an unattended barking dog protecting the area. So, the staff kindly moved us to a different side of the property. We love the rooms and amenities of Sideways. The freeway noise and the car wash's beeping are a factor for light sleepers. The Sausage Airstream is FANTASTIC. Our go-to place to stay when heading up to Paso from OC.
