Very nice room, and very comfortable bed. I will definitely stay there next time I am in El Centro.
And it's the little things...like USB port on updated bedside light, ironing board and iron in room, and the bed almost felt like memory foam, fridge and microwave nice touch. Very nice, thank you!

Our Place To Stay In El Centro
We spent two nights at the Crown Motel. The day before my hernia surgery and the night after the surgery. We choose the Crown Motel they always try accomodate our needs. This time it included accomodating my needs to have a 1st floor room and parking right in fron of the room so I could enter without the need to walk far from the room.
We choose the Crown Motel for it location near Costco,Smart and Final, Vons and others. The rooms are always exceptionally quiet and provide a refrigerator for storing our food purchases. The owners are always very friendy and helpful.

Nice but very basic.
The receptionist was very friendly and check in was a breeze. The amenities however, couldn't be more basic. 2 little bars of soap and although clean, there was only 1 bath towel for 2 people. There were several hand towels though.
There's no coffee in the room. Very basic but clean.
