I havent stayed at a whole lot of hotels, but this one has to be the worst i have ever been to. This place is very unclean. Our room smelled bad, the bedsheets and towels were stained, the toilet paper dispenser had MOLD. On top of this, there were smudges on the walls in our room and blood in the elevator. The gentleman at the front was a little grumpy and slow. I do not recommend this hotel. The only plus was the breakfast included, though limited, and In n out was a minute walk away.

When I arrived at the property I was a bit too early for check in so I was asked to wait due to the room wasn’t ready yet which was no problem at all. I came back at 3 pm to check in got my key walked up to my room which was on the 3rd floor and once I walked in the room was dirty as hell there were cigarette buds behind the bed frame, walls were dirty, the orange couches in the room were filthy with stains and other body fluids I’m guessing as well. Not to mention the tv and phone didn’t work. The bathroom was molded in visible places like how could you miss that. The towels were stained but smelled clean. There was a hole in the ventilation to the restroom I’m not sure what happened there. I couldn’t even go anywhere else because everything was full in that area so I was out of luck. Please don’t let the pictures on the website fool you because I surely was.

3 stars at best

Room was ok. A floor was dirty. No shampoo for shower. Towels thin and not folded well. Room appeared clean beside floor but not organized well. Things out of place. One outlet didn’t work to charge. No luggage rack. Bed and linens were nice though.

VERY interesting area ! Must read !!

First and Foremost, this “hotel” is right on the most popular street for prostitution just FYI… Secondly, the freeway is right in front so just be aware of noise levels lol. Will I ever stay there again ? Probably not.. The place definitely needs renovating. Broken furniture, lights out , loud exhaust fan , etc.. I will say that the bed was comfy . Overall , my stay was ok but like I said ..just keep in mind the 2 things I mentioned above that way you can make the call to stay or not.

A lot worse than the one in king city, not recomme

Definitely not good for family to stay there, specially if you have kids. Inefficient front desk workers, marijuana smell in the parking lot, mold on the restroom ceiling, dirty frozen ice in the freezer, stained carpet. Our unit didn’t have shampoo, when I went to asked for it, they didn’t even have a new bottle, gave me two used ones!! Worst motel I have ever stayed.

Visible and hazardous mold in the units. I would recommend Expedia do the healthy thing and remove this hotel from their platform. Pinky, the manager, was rude, vulgar and accused my family of stealing his hotel’s towels. If zero stars were possible, I would give it zero.
Black mold. Very unhealthy and hazardous.

Not worth it

I wish I knew their breakfast started at 7am. Because I was in town for work, and had to be there at 6:30am. I stayed at 2 other motels, of similar value, in the same area, and they both started at 6am for their breakfast. Other than that, and being overcharged almost $35 for my stay, it was adequate. They charged a different price per night than quoted on this app. I never thought I'd have to pay more for less amenities. I will not be staying here again.
