Good enough for the price, no real concerns to stay there, wouldnt be a pick for going with a family for a holiday. Older hotel and updates to the rooms but fine to stay in for a cheap motel. Surrounding area not the greatest as will have some homeless and shady characters in the general area. There is a grocery store nearby and other services in the area.
Great place to stay and friendly staff. Very convenient location with lots of dining options near by. One of the best Motels in the area definitely recommend.
Nice small room, clean and close the a big supermarket Stater Brothers, walking distance.
Close by restaurant. The man at the office was polite overall is ok. The is big enough for only 2 people.
Hotel room was pretty big loved it. The only downfall was the beds were smaller than I thought. I booked a room with a queen size bed, but it felt/ looked like it was a full size bed rather than a queen
The owners are very friendly. The inn is next to a Stater Bros for easy access groceries. I have never had any trouble finding a parking spot. Issues to be aware of are internet connection is not and the rooms are very small . I have stayed here numerous times over the years and will return again .
Worst motel I stayed at. I’ve stayed at about 5 different ones before, so my experience isn’t extensive, but I’m not a first-timer, either.
Cons:
- Worst sleep I ever had: pillows hard as a rock, itchy blanket, bedding had holes in it.
- Worst conditions I’ve seen: chipped paint, paint drops in various places, no closet, no towel racks, no drawers, just a few shelves that barely worked for my personal items, only one trash can in bathroom, one $50 office chair.
- Staff doesn’t clean hard-to-reach places, so my dust allergies were going haywire.
- Walls are thin, so even then it feels like they got decent noise insulation for windows to block the sound of traffic from outside, I definitely heard the couple next door chatting away at 4am.
Pros
- Staff was helpful and available
- They do a daily clean, and it was clean where it mattered: bedding, floors, etc.
- Great price for the area
Neutral
- Safety: the location feels sketchy as you drive to it and see homeless folks and some rundown buildings, although I never actually felt unsafe while there, and I think they got cameras, so take that as you will.
- Wall AC unit works well, but is loud. Just typical motel AC situation.
Conclusion:
The sleep situation was bad enough that I’d never go back. The rest wasn’t great, but not dealbreakers, in my opinion. So if you’re a tightwad and bring your own pillow, then maybe this place could work for you.
To my surprise, the interior was as modern and as clean as the 3-star hotels I've stayed at. I messed up and lost my room card, but they were cool about it. I don't suggest pushing your luck on that, though, because it clearly states there's a $10 charge for losing your room card. It's not too bad on the exterior either; there's just normal people going about their business.
