Upon arrival we were told a water pipe burst in our room. We had to find another hotel. We were offered a full refund, which would be processed immediately. It's the next day and we haven't seen or heard from anyone on the refund.

The people living there do not help the Motel. My last night there. This guy was yelling about someone not eyeballing his visitor's and to call the office? He ended the night with im sick of you f__ing pu@k. I had my kids there at the time. If this sounds like a great stay to you have at it.

They gave me a room that was disgusting and did not even check on me. Apparently, the manager took off and there was no one working!!

The property manager was awesome! I think he need to become a Standup Comedian.

So the first time I stayed I was put in a very clean room and felt safe. This was my second stay and theanager apparently quit and left. I got a not so clean room, fridge was old and had broken parts, and the carpet was super nasty. I saw people going to a room for 5 minutes and leaving. There were 5 broke down vehicles in the lot. I do not think I will be staying there again!!

This motel was good for me as a single traveler. Had everything I needed. Safeway across the street and a Marcos pizza next door.

The bathroom was very small but I found the room to be clean and comfortable. I had everything I needed. A Perkins right next door was very convenient.

It was a good property for the money, but it's very old and very small. The carpet smelled very musty. The room was very clean and that is the most important thing for which I look on a stay.

It was perfect, the AC was cold and the water was hot for showers. Its a bit older place but I would stay there again every time I was in town and it was clean and tidy. The prices are fair too! Lots of food choices nearby and anything else you may need. Has a microwave and a fridge too ! Flat Screen TV with a ton of channels FYI

Overall it was decent. Somewhat dated. Seemed a little pricey, but compared to others it was a good price.

They were overbooked so they moved us to a different place. It worked out for us and because of the swap they gave us a discount. Friendly staff. Ok breakfast.

For an older motel it was good. The breakfast started too late for us to use. It would be nice if the was a voucher for the Perkins next door.

in the first room the bed was dirty. We get another room. The door couldn't be locked there, but at least it was cleaner.

The room was fine but very dark. Only one light was connected to an outlet and the window was very small. Other than that, the room was as expected.

Not the best place to stay on a hot day, as the indoor climate was bad and air-con not strong enough to take the heat. Not recommended.

Grocery store across the street, restaurant next door, neighborhood to walk in and parking right in front of our room. Meyer was very helpful in helping me clean up when I spilled my morning shake on my white pants. Thought I'd throw them away but he was able to get the stain completely out. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was clean with nice white towels and the shower water pressure was good and strong. No coffee maker in the list of amenities but when I asked for one it was placed in our room before we arrived. I'd stay here again on a return visit.

I needed a place to stay for one night before a family reunion in the Hills. This looked like a good value in a good location. Check in was quick and the clerk was friendly. The room was clean and spacious. There was a refrigerator and a table with two chairs. The bathroom was on the smaller side but the shower worked well. There was coffee available in the morning as well as baskets of bananas and granola bars. I woke up pretty early and walked one parking lot over to Perkins for early coffee. There’s a Safeway across the street, and downtown is only a few minutes away. There’s a decent washer and dryer available for use as well. It’s a fairly busy road but the traffic noise was minimal at nighttime. It was a good value for the price and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.
