"One of the coziest, affordable places to stay. I was here for 2 weeks. They clean your room every day if you want. The guests are quiet, the property is clean. They were remodeling the pool last time I was there. However, the time before last, the pool was also clean. Beds are comfy, TVs are new, sheets are always clean. The rooms are modern. The wifi is a little laggy, but good enough for simple things. Free coffee and microwave in the lobby. There are a few gas stations, food spots and convenience stores within a 5 minute walk. The entire staff is nice, and they speak Spanish and English. I received my deposit back quickly too. Overall, I would certainly stay here again."

"The night staff is extremely unprofessional. I noticed I was double charged right after I checked in. At this point I had already had a negative experience during check in so this really did make it over the top. When I confronted him about it He told me there’s no way & he didn’t do anything. I already had my bank account up & I showed it to him. He just kept denying he did anything. He then threatened to blow up at me & call the owner. Apparently him telling me he didn’t do anything I’m just supposed to believe him even though my bank statement clearly says something completely different. I ended up just going to my room. He didn’t do anything."

"Cheap motel room. Don't expect much. Good for its price. However, each of the 3 staff members we met at the reception were very friendly and helpful."

"A lot of positive reviews and lower prices made me book a night while planning a family PCH trip. For three of us two double beds were a rather sufficient accommodation. Motel feel, basic, but clean overall, no odors, restroom and shower quite adequate. No regrets for booking it, for sure. No breakfast, some basic coffee available at the office. Expected though."

"I gave it a 3-star because the room had basic amenities, no fancy things. But really, it was a very good, clean room. It was spacious, no odor and very reasonable price. Free soap, shampoo packets and a mini fridge. Parking was easy. It was very straightforward to find, good basic cable. I would recommend and stay there again."
