The hotel is very conveniently ppaced next to the 5. A few chain restsurants around and some decently priced gas. Being close to the 5 it is a bit noisy but the rooms do a decent job of blocking out the sound. Safe spot, lots of CHP rolling through at a pretty regular place. If youre just looking for a cheap spot to stay on a long road trip this place is perfect.

Stayed here many times. The noise level from I-5 is high, but it is high at the other hotels here as well. Breakfast is limited. Staff is friendly. Ok for a quick overnight stop.

Cheap hotel for a night's rest

This hotel is perfect for an inexpensive stop to sleep. No frills, just beds and a bathroom. It has always been clean, though there is sometimes damage to a wall or door frame that needs to be done.

I arrived very late, but I was greeted and felt comfortable. I was obviously tired and the front desk attendant asked me if I needed anything. She informed me where to park and the time breakfast was ready. It was perfect because I needed to leave at very early. The breakfast area was very nice and there was plenty of room to seat. It was a nice stay.
