My family and I love staying at Hotel Morales. The rooms are clean, updated and roomy. The food is delicious and has many options to choose from. The desk staff could be more welcoming but get their job done. The hotel is near shopping, eating and churches. I definitely recommend this place and would stay again.

This hotel was great. Very clean and nice staff. The area around the hotel is very run down with a lot of homeless people in the area which required a security guard at the hotel. All the lovely churches are spray painted with graffiti and overrun with homeless. I would not recommend staying in this area.
