Good short stay

Crown Motel is a pretty average place to stay. It’s nothing fancy, but it gets the job done if you’re just looking for somewhere affordable. The rooms are basic and could use a little updating, but they’re clean enough for a short stay. The location is convenient, and the price is definitely one of the better things about it. Overall, it’s not the best motel out there, but if you’re on a budget and need something simple, it works.Big heads up before check in request staff to turn AC on, it does take a while to freshen up but once up room is nice and cool

Was the relocated to 2nd floor corner it was ok except the tv didnt work it wanted me to log in to my Samsung account to use the tv. I didn't feel comfortable with the wifi not being secure.

Very nice room, and very comfortable bed. I will definitely stay there next time I am in El Centro. And it's the little things...like USB port on updated bedside light, ironing board and iron in room, and the bed almost felt like memory foam, fridge and microwave nice touch. Very nice, thank you!
