1-night trip

8/10

We were greeted by a very professional and pleasant man behind the counter at check-in and given a map and good information tailored to our visit. My teenage daughter and I were very comfortable for our 3 night stay. Room was clean, stocked with towels and soaps, coffee maker and coffee/sugar, plenty of pillows, and working microwave and mini fridge. The fridge was a bit warm the first night, as if it had been turned off and then recently turn on upon our arrival, but by end of day 2 was freezing our food and we had to readjust it. It was not a deal breaker. Downtown was within easy walking distance and not at all unpleasant. Also the motel is located right next to the 101 offramp (easy to find) and across from an Arco gas station, but it wasn't noisy at all on a Wednesday thru Saturday stay.

Perfect for an overnight stay to get to the airport early! Walls are a bit thin, but once other guests quieted down, I didn’t hear any noise from the airport or nearby road. I had to be at the airport at 430am and easily scheduled an uber the night before to make the 10 minute drive. Staff was extremely kind and accommodating upon arrival.

10/10

Comfortable beds, large bathroom, extra blankets. Mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker as well as brewed coffee in the front office. It worked really well for us. It's not fancy but good. My only gripes are that the closet was hard to get to and while there was a smallish table, there was no desk. Overall, very nice and affordable
