Booked the room ($81) a week and a half prior to stay. Chose the pay at hotel option. And received confirmation text and emails. When I got to the hotel, after showing my ID, gave my phone number, and showed the confirmation text and emails, was told there was no reservation under my information. I couldn’t get into Travelocity as both the phone signal and WiFi are horrible at the hotel, and as I just Ubered there for an event for work and had bags boxes and equipment with me, I couldn’t drag it all around while looking for another hotel …was forced to take a walk in rate of $140. I was told as there was no record of my reservation I would not be charged a no show fee on my reservation. I was given room 304 all 3 beds had mismatched pillows and numerous burn holes in the bedspread, a picture was missing leaving a board with exposed nails, the fan in the connected bedroom was barely attached to the ceiling with wood screws , the smoke detector was missing having been ripped out of the base, the light fixture in the bathroom was rusted and covered in spiderwebs and dead bugs, and to e shower head was covered in calcium deposits. In the morning after checking out and already at work setting up our event I got notification that I was charged a no show fee. So after working all day at the event I had to give up my ride home to head back to the hotel to fix the charges. I was told by the front desk worker (same as check in and checkout) that Travelocity charged me no

walking distance to places to eat, and right next to Knott farm, 22 miles away from cruise lines, if you don't want to pay so much for a hotel, closer to it. this is the perfect prices and distance from it, and good hotel rate average $80 dollars depending on the season :) Will I stay here again, Yes, I would. confusing, was once you check in, you have to pay deposit, then you will get it back, when you check out, if you didn't damage anything. (ATTENTION) can't pay your deposit thru your major card, you have to have cash for your deposit, I repeat you cannot pay deposit with your credit card, you have to have cash!!! very nice size parking lot.

Very disappointed, they gave me room number 412. Everything is dirty inside, they gave only one towel for two people, there is a terrible smell inside and dust is coming from the air conditioner, the sofa is completely unusable, the bed is dirty and stale, the toilet has stains. Very bad hotel!

A little cleaning will go a long way

Check in was fine. The room was so dirty and repulsive that I went to Walmart to by cleaning supplies! The walls are so dirty, the bathroom is disgusting (boogers dried to the wall and door frames, toilet seat had dried pee on it). It took almost an hour to clean one room. If you book a room bring cleaning supplies and your own towels.

We ended our trip early and drove home on the second night. We refused to sleep in the filth a second night. Not to mention the all night yelling between drug attacks who live at the hotel. And the weed smell constantly was over baring. The dude at the front didn’t even care to ask why we were checking out early. Unfriendly and disgusting room. Do not take your family here!!

Terrible beds!!!

Smelled clean with bleach but somewhat dilapidated. Large crack under door. Bugs could easily come in but did not see any. No phone. Three bath towels for 4 people. No face towels. No bath mat. No wash cloth. Two rolls of toilet paper for 2 nights. No maid service. No ice machine. Bed is extremely firm!!! Killed my back!!! Very close to Knott's Berry farm. Walking distance. Close to a Walgreens. That was convenient. If you are looking for bells and whistles, this is not it. Price was good/reasonable. I would probably spend more next time for a nicer place.
