Great motel to stay at. Right off the freeway. GREAT price. WAY cheaper than the 2 hotels near by. The room was super comfortable, bed was comfortable and the room was very clean. Zero issues for me.
It's a very quiet place allowing for a good night's rest. The room was clean and has obviously been updated (new paint). The bed is firm. Pillows definitely need upgrading and the bathtub needs some repair. A little pricey but overall okay for a place to lay your head.
I'm glad I found this place. It's nothing fancy, but what do you expect for under $60? Check-in was hassle free. The room is spacious and well equipped. Everything works, even if it shows its age. The location is far enough away from the freeway that you can't hear it. The main row of rooms are west facing, so if the weather cooperates you'll get evening sun through the windows. There's even a charcoal grill next to the parking lot, although it seems to have lost an argument with a car. It looks intact enough to be usable though. I'd stay here again over the chain places nearby.
Old time single level motel with all rooms having parking lot access. Nicely refurbished and clean. Next door to a Chipotle was a plus.
This is a GREAT motel, and the price!!! 1st I’m rating this to other “motels” that I have stayed at. By far this has been the best one. If I had to make a complaint, it would be I heard some road noise. But to be fair, as the evening went on, there was less traffic. At bed time, i use ear plugs. Not an issue at all. Great size room, great bed, great pillows, great water pressure. Super easy to get to from freeway. Though I did not see many food choices when I arrived, but I also did not look for any food. It was almost 10pm and it was raining. I compared this stay with other motels I’ve stayed at. BUT I will say this. I loved this motel. I’d stay here over a ton of hotels I have stayed at. And comparing the rate to a hotel, you are saving money. I absolutely will stay here again.
Nice and spacious room. Mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker. Awesome cold air conditioner during this summer. Kind staff. It's in a very good location near the grocery store, restaurant, etc
Inexpensive basic motel. Quiet and clean. Room smelled a little too strong of disinfectant. Very friendly staff and a nice family who ran the front office while I was there.
I wish there were more motels like this one. It's the old-fashioned style where you get to park right in front of your room, but the rooms have been updated. My room was spotlessly clean. The bed was comfortable. The A/C worked fine and wasn't overly loud (nor was the neighborhood). The front desk clerk was friendly. Even had a mini-fridge and microwave. All this for around $60. I called and made my reservation over the phone. Those online reservation systems take like 15-20% of the room price, which is why motels have gotten expensive.
