Staff is very attentive and anxious to be of service.I stay with Solano whenever I’m in the area to visit family. Motel is a little short on amenities. For example, soap is about the size of a quarter and not much thicker.

Great price-great stay
We were pleasantly surprised at the size and cleanliness of the room. I had to ask for a blow dryer but one was readily available. Only slightly worth mentioning: The curtains were sheer and let in a lot of light. Great price-great stay.

I must say that I'm thorough impressed. I read the reviews and almost passed on it, but then i said, it's only for one night. The room is clean. I love that there's no carpet on the floor, hence the room smells fresh. I love that it has a kitchenette. The shower is big. People, I'm glad I decided to stay here, because it's wayyyyyyyy more than I expected. Oh, and the receptionists were very polite, and even offered to help with our bags. I would definitely stay here again.
