Thin walls & no EV charging

The room was outdated but clean. Problem was the paper thin walls which let in road noise and loud unsupressed voices from room next door at 5am. Luckily had ear plugs but still slept horribly. Secondly, EV charging wasn't available as advertised, only the outlet by car port, no plugs. The staff was friendly and helpful though.

The Thunderbird was nicely managed by the front desk manager. They are doing renovations, but it wasn’t particularly noisy. I was able to park right in front of my room which I liked. There are a few restaurants and a convenience store within walking distance. The coffee maker was difficult to figure out, or perhaps broken. But I always bring my own Mini Keurig. It is reasonably priced for the accommodations.

Customer service was great and breakfast was clean and easy. Rooms are very dated specifically the AC and carpets. Beds were uncomfortable and very hard. Gaps in door and frame and from the AC wall unit made it to be pretty noisy from passing vehicles. However, it is in a great area though and inexpensive.

After a long day on the road, a hot shower and comfortable bed were top priorities and we got them. We were able to charge our EV and the donuts and coffee next door started our next day of driving off perfectly.

This is an excellent location for downtown walking and site seeing. The lobby staff were friendly, informative, and helpful. The room is a bit dated, but reconstruction was underway in the back half of the property. We’d stay again if in the area.
