The floor in my room was filthy and the chair that was provided was lopsided and broken. The microwave looked like someone had something explode in it, yet it did work. The shower flooded anytime you used it and there was no hairdryer provided. Other than that, the bed was comfortable and the location was great being able to walk to the fairgrounds for the event I was attending.

Convenient and clean!

Stayed here for Caliroots festival. It was a really easy walk to and from the festival, had safe parking, and was clean and quiet at night for some great rest in between long days. Will absolutely stay here again for the festival. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Stayed at the property for a race weekend at Laguna Seca. Can't beat the convenience, plus a great experience for the price. Place is a little old but very clean and well maintained. We felt safe leaving our sports car in the parking lot in front of the room. A short drive to great authentic local restaurants with a ton more 10 minutes away in Monterey.

I've had worse. There was a crackhead couple next door to us that argued all night. Luckily, the AC unit was nice and loud so they were drowned out. You get what you pay for I guess.

At checking in, I was assigned to a room that had not been cleaned. I was reassigned to a different room after pointing this out to the front desk. At first glance, the room seemed OK. It was equipped with a microwave and small fridge. The bed was ok but the blankets had holes from cigarette burns. The pillows were lumpy and terrible. The room seems to have been renovated 2 years prior but was poorly maintained. The bath towels were small, thin and grungy. The face towel was stained and it looked like a cleaning rag that had been used in a mechanic’s shop. I took a picture of it as proof. The shower curtain is white but somewhat yellowing from use. The soapdish was filled with white soap scum residue. The TV did not work. The location is not bad and there is free parking. WIFI is decent. It was better than camping and hotel room cost was relatively inexpensive compared to other motels in the area. I can’t recommend this place for customers who are very particular about cleanliness. Sorry for the bad review but it’s the truth.

This place is a good place for the price, and if you just need a place to sleep while you in town. I was in room 100, which is next to the property residence, and the walls are a little thin between the two, in the afternoon it was quite noisy next to me, but not during the night. Everything was clean, but it’s definitely time to replace the linen, I went and bought a towel for my stay. Like I said if you just need a place to crash, this place is fine.

Felt like a one star hotel. The towels were in worse condition than my rags I use to clean toilets. Holes and stains all over bedding. I could go on, just horrible.

Extreme Dirty

My mother and I were in town from the Central Valley because my grandfather had a stroke. Instead of going with a big chain hotel company I thought we could give our business to a local inn. When I checked into the inn, the young gentleman at the counter was very friendly. He even recommended some good places to eat nearby. We unloaded the few bags we had I removed the decorative throw on bedding and discovered footprints with dirt and public hairs on the bedding and pillows. The room was full of dirt and the mirrors had streaks on them like it was rubbed with dust. I immediately went to tell the person at the front counter but it was a young lady this time and she was apologetic and said they had one room left. We checked into that room, I inspected bed and it was fine but still thick layers of dust. The bathroom floors had long hairs all over and in the tub. The towels were paper in with dirt and makeup stains. We were so grossed out but did not want to be problematic so we wrapped the pillows with our own beach towels and used our clothes to dry our face and hands. We just wanted to go to sleep and leave asap. What’s weird is that when we left at 8am the vacancy was still up and was in when we had returned from dinner at 9pm the night before. I do not recommend and unfortunately this has made me reconsider staying in inns.

The heater was very noisy and the low fan setting did not work, so I just had to turn it off at night. Cold room in morning. Bed would tilt downward if sat on edge.
