great value. Liked: in Glendale, this was 28 miles from the airport. clean and spacious. I pulled my car right up to the door- no elevator or steps. plus, a wall around the facility, making it seem safer. it's right in a community, it seemed. such a nice place I'd book it again. Disliked: No coffee
