The hotel is centrally located in Little Italy and the property is very clean, but the restaurant never seemed open, the curtains don't provide sufficient blocking of the sun, and the hotel is essentially a nicer motel with exterior doors. The beds are clean, though the mattresses are extremely hard and uncomfortable.

What are some of the general tips for travellers to East County during the COVID-19 outbreak?
COVID-19 has changed the way we travel, but it hasn't curbed our eagerness for exploring. Here are a few tips on how to handle the new challenges of travelling:
  • Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking. Also check if there are any conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test.
  • When you go through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Travellers who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
  • To decrease the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA employee.
  • TSA now permits passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on baggage. This will need to be removed from your bag at the X-ray machine for screening.
  • To minimize handling during the screening process, put items such as your phone, coins and keys into your carry-on rather than the bins.
  • Separate any food you have for screening. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to touch and inspect your belongings.
