Finding bird feathers on the floor and other bits of debris did not speak to cleanliness. Chair covering was ripped in places and looked old. Mirror had old paint not cleaned off it. Certainly not an 8 out of 10 place as advertised.

Great location and staff. Dirty motel. No AC so you have to open the window and use a super loud fan. Houseman was in my room trying to strip it down before I was ready or checked out.

Don't stay here!
The hotel increased their rates for the holiday weekend, when you increase your rates people expect more! The weekend was very warm and this place has NO AC, just a sad fan screwed to the wall, which wouldn't stop osculating. There isn't enough parking for all of the rooms, so we ended up parking overnight in a 2-hour only spot, partially in the dirt. The window sill was dusty, the bathroom floor was dirty and the shower wasn't clean. Not an enjoyable stay, won't stay here again!

The family that manage this property were so accommodating, friendly, and just a joy to deal with. The room was clean and comfortable. I enjoyed thoroughly enjoyed my stay, and definitely will come back!! If I had to make one criticism it would be that the shower didn’t have much pressure. That’s it! That’s all I can think of! Everything else was amazing

We will stay here again. Owners were very nice and accommodating. She even mopped the floor because of all the construction dust. Location was perfect for walking around shopping. Quiet at night. Close to State line if you like to gamble.

There was NO A/C for a heat wave striking California this week! It was rather HOT during the night. Our room was in a dark corner of this hotel next to a staircase when other rooms remained empty... Although advertised as "Luxury in a budget" this budget hotel offered a non-working WIFI, a renovated old but clean enough hotel with NO airconditioning.
