The hotel does no match the pictures of the hotel. I was quite and clean. Bed not the best at all. No ice machine on property. Bathroom could have been better clean. You could see calcium from the hard water deposits

Horrible Customer Service

Checking in was a very Frustrating Experienced. I've booked and paid for one of the largest room in advanced. I've also emailed the property right after my reservation was confirmed that I need an ADA room due to my disability. On the day of check-in at 11:30 am now I'm receiving an email from the property notifying that my confirmed reservation with a large room was only located up stairs with no elevator?? Why wasn't I notified in advance after my payment was processed? Not even 4 hours before check-in time?? This is a Horrible business practice. So we ended up taking a very small room and I wasn't able to use my walker in the room because it wasn't able to accommodate my walker.

⭐☆☆☆☆ Be Careful Before Booking This Hotel! I’m extremely disappointed with how this hotel handled my reservation. When I booked through Expedia, I specifically chose the option to pay at the hotel when I checked in. Despite that, the hotel charged my card the day before my arrival without my permission! Since I had planned to pay at check-in, the payment didn’t go through. Immediately after, I received an email demanding payment and threatening to cancel my reservation. I had to call Expedia, and the representative had to personally call the hotel to fix the situation. Even after that, the morning of my check-in, the hotel called me again demanding payment or they would cancel my stay—while I was at work! To avoid losing my 3-night reservation, I went ahead and paid in full before even arriving. When I finally checked in, they told me I had to pay a $60 deposit that was never mentioned anywhere during booking or when I called earlier to make payment. They also insisted it be paid in cash, which I didn’t have, so I had to use my debit card instead. After checking out, I didn’t get my deposit back until five days later, and that was only after calling the hotel twice to ask for it. The only positive thing I can say is that the room was clean and the location was convenient.

Affordable and basic- in a good way.

This is a budget friendly hotel. This is my second stay here and I am very happy. Staff is friendly and present. The location is close to many restaurants, markets, and shops. The rooms are basic, with no carpeting, microwave, and mini-fridge. AC works and showers are hot and no drain problems. Rented 3 rooms and they placed us next to each other. About a 10 minute drive to Disneyland.

Unsatisfied customer

It was ok but I asked for a later checkout daughter had a late game but guy gave me a hard time it’s a small motel and there is no way they were fully booked for that night. Made me pay half the nights fee for an extra 3 hrs I didn’t want to never had this problem before but my daughter needed rest and sleep between games… the hotel needs updating for sure.

Front desk needs improvement

Check in was through bullet proof window. Did not provide confidence on safety. Check out at 8:30 the front desk did not respond to multiple rings. Housekeeper told me to leave key card in office. Bed was great. Bathroom was tiny and oddly shaped.
