Check in was extremely slow. The first room stunk like cat pee and couldn't be used. I had to change room. The taps at sink didnt work, barely dripped water. Outlets beside bed needed light switch on so i couldn't power sleep apnea machine or charge phone without beeping lights on. Carpet throughout room was sticky. The room was absolutely horrendous

Not sure how this property ever received 5 stars. This is such an unsafe property that the local police even commented so. My son who traveled with me was not comfortable walking in the parking lot as he was greeted and propositioned by a prostitute. We didn’t feel safe leaving our belongings in the room. Parking was terrible. Staff was rude. This is a voucher hotel. All of these things should be advertised right up front. Safety needs to be something Expedia should consider highlighting when advertising these hotels.

The hotel is right next to the freeway, so it’s a bit loud outside. This wasn’t really a problem. They charged a $2 / night electricity surcharge—this was a bit deceptive, but not a huge deal, The temperature of the shower was not consistent. It varied from cold to scalding and back again over the course of a few minutes. Adjusting the temperature did not help. The beds were not great, but that was expected. Housekeeping was consistent. My kids enjoyed the pool. The hot tub was not hot. Finally, I didn’t care for the bugs in the room or the mildew smell. I’ve stayed in worse places, but not recently. 2 stars may be generous

Great place, reasonable price.

Everything was excellent, except the Jacuzzi was out of service. I was really looking forward to getting in it. That was one of reasons I chose the Heritage. The Jacuzzi & the price was reasonable. I hope they have it fixed before our next stay.

This property is a magnet for people with add*ction and housing issues, a popular meeting place for p*mps and pr*stitutes, is filthy, unsafe, run down, poorly lit, disturbing, with sketchy people hanging around the parking lot. The manager LOCKED the office door before my check-in. He took so long checking in and kept adding fees to the people in front of me, I hightailed it out of there and went to a proper chain hotel for safety. This place needs to be removed from travel sites. Scariest place I've ever booked.

I Definitely liked the pool the room was clean and the lications of the place. However the bathtub was damaged with cracks there was no microwave nether hairdryer. I didn't like the fact that the place wanted to charge more just for allowing me to check in one hour earlier.

Do not stay

Roaches were found in the room after day 2. A complaint was filed and nothing was done about it. Room had a stale smell with no way to air out or open a window. Strange people in and out of the area, especially at night. Better off spending $$ closer to beach/tourist areas for the convenience & cleanliness
