    There is no amenity at all, no coffee nor microwave in room or in the lobby. Our toilet is not even cleaned when we checked in. The room floor is dirty. On our first day, the lobby attendant is nowhere to be seen, twice.

    Mandatory evacuation for the entire area. Booked at 11pm (evacuation had started earlier in the evening but since we weren’t in town no one informed us) because of the chemical spill we were unable to access the hotel or the booking. When I called the hotel they said tough luck so money was spent and haven’t been able to refund since we weren’t allowed to the hotel . Still need refund

    I don't recommend anybody staying here. The room had such a strong musty smell, the towels we're like paper towels. There were broken down cars inside the parking lot. Homeless people we're inside the gated area. I didn't take any pictures, I should have, but we just slept, showered and left the next morning early.

    For the money we paid for two nights, it was not worth it. We felt like we were in prison due to all the fences and gates you have to go through to get to your room. Instructions how to get to the room was not very clear, nor did they have some kind of map to help. Ice only available by the front desk and then costed 25 cents. (Front Desk did give me 50 cents for the first bucket) TV had only two local stations (CBS and KTLA,) Did have odd stations which had old shows, also had stations that were Asian and Spanish I didn't mind this, but was very upset that they did not have ABC or NBC. I noted small ants in bathroom, on floor and on the towels. Also, they did not have coffee available either in the room or even at front desk. (Even Motel 6 has coffee.) Not pleased with stay and will never stay there again.

    Very safe if that is what you are looking for, controlled access in and out of the parking lot and to the rooms. My biggest complaint is the bed is on rollers on laminate, it constantly shifted around. This is an easy fix, just put the wheels on coasters for guest comfort. Also no fridge or microwave. I've stayed in many bargain places that do provide this. Also, one of the end tables had gang grafitti etched into it.

    The room that was given to me was on the ground level and the sliding windows did not lock. So there was a security and safety issue. I barely got any sleep and to feel secure, I had my knife near me at all times. I would not recommend leaving your things in the room for long periods of time. The bathtub was halfway peeling due to the resurfaced area. The curtain rod was sticking through the drywall instead of it freely hanging. The motel looks like it is for multi-use since most of the clients I saw looked like they live there. Apparently, they rent out the rooms by the hour too.

    This is my home away from home, let's be honest it's not the mariot, however...it fits my budget and I've come quite fond of the place, they always let me get the same room as long as it's available, the staff is super friendly and always helpful when needed. The maid serivce is available but they don't knock on your door to see if you need towels and toiletries so I usually have to go out and find the cart on the tier. They do seem to have a problem with homeless people camping on or under the stairs and I've been begged more than one occasion to be let in my room which is somewhat uncomfortable, at times I've had to sneak around them just to get ice or going in and out of the property. Other than a few minor issues I enjoy it and it's a great location, plenty to do and plenty to eat close by.

The staff is very nice to me and always accommodating me with respect and a smile, it's not the Marriot , HOWEVER....In my opinion it's much better, also great location, plenty of shopping and food within walking distance

    This is our second day and iwill be probably back. This is a very basic motel, but all we need is shower and sleep. All of that provided: clean linens, large comfortable beds, clean bathtub that actually drains (no standing water!) I especially like all the cozy lamps in all the needed areas, so you don’t have to keep the annoying Overhead ceiling light on. There were plenty of drawers, two tables, a nice midsize fridge with a separate freezer door, two chairs and an arm chair! The only problem the first time it took 2 requests to get linen replacement, but then they overcompensated and gave us a lot! Overall, very satisfied.

    This is an old hotel with permanent residents was chased by dogs twice there were plenty of homeless hanging around the bed was soft and springy and the room was full of names and tags scratched into the furniture and felt dank and kinda gross overall and the pool was green!

    WiFi is awful, nearly useless, cable TV was even worse. Shower/water pressure was horrible. It caters to a very low class clientele of pot smokers heavy drinkers and generally noisy inconsiderate low life’s. Staff was friendly location is great and it’s clean. Room was large. In the future if I can’t afford a better hotel than this one I will stay home.

    As soon as we walked into the room a bug crawled out. Our first night we heard someone screaming for help and the sounds of them getting kidnapped at 3 am. There is also a cat on property unspayed constantly howling all night. Our room had thin walls there was the sound of some washing machines or some machine in the room near us that was running all night loudly. They allow homeless gangster people to hang around in the lobby and they are friendly with them and let them stay there. These people scope out your car and watch you enter the inn, made us feel unsafe. They locked us out of our room on our second night there we were very scared while waiting for them to open our room. Dont stay here to save money your risking your life.

    The place has all the charm of cell block #9. The place is surrounded on 3 sides by a 6ft fence topped with 2ft of concertina wire. All the entrances from outside are surrounded by cages with locked-gate entrances. The grounds are unkempt. The room had a musty smell (we used a whole can of Lysol). The curtains had holes. The furniture was mismatched. The bed was comfortable enough. The TV had no cable/streaming channels. Only digital broadcast channels. Free outlets were at a premium and the lights had burned out bulbs (so the room was very very dark). The tub was slippery when wet and there were no grab bars or slip mats. We found bugs (not cockroaches) in the bathroom. There was a population of feral cats. Some of the other guests spent a lot of every evening pretending to parent their feral (screaming) kids. This was not a pleasant stay and VERY OVERPRICED for what the property actually delivered. I would NEVER stay here again!

    The night person guy did not greet nor ask my preference of downstairs or upstairs. I’ve worked hospitality as front desk so I know the proper way of greeting and checking in/checking out people. I noticed there was a lot of empty parking slots. Gosh I wonder why Pets inside people rooms that are most likely guests who rent to the max days due to having no home. Yes, I can tell. Beginning to open the room, I immediately noticed a baby roach climbing up the door alerting me there are more insects somewhere. Finally inside the room, 1st thing I see if a dead baby roach on the floor (like I knew there would be). Then I noticed a marker next to the bed that has not been cleaned up either. The bed comforter has been stitched up noticeably. The flooring has paint stains and the whole room is very bland. It’s awfully disgusting!! To add the cherry on the top, an ASIAN ELDERLY MAN (assuming that’s the owner that people talk about) was knocking on the door at 10am. I’VE NEVER HAD THAT BEFORE NOR HAVE I EVER DONE THAT TO ANY GUEST AT ANY HOTEL IVE WORKED AT!!!!!! Old man, it’s 10am NOT 11am yet. I put my alarm on at 9am way before you came, I know what I’m doing. I thought there was someone trying to be shady knocking on my door. I have a 4 year old!!! We are not like your usual “guests”

    If you need a place to stay under $100 in the Anaheim/Long Beach area this will meet your budget. A Motel 66 type of place, secured parking is a plus.

    Once again, the owner who likes to make people think he is the manager John There’s nothing but a pervert he wants to come to my room and yes, he can look around for damages because it was an argument that’s his business but when I tell him, my wife is in the restroom on the toilet, a disabled wife, he will not leave and refuses to leave my room until I go in the bathroom and get her off the toilet. I’m going to ask Paula Expedia customer service and make a major complaint against this property.

    stayed for two nights, no room service provided during our stay (no fresh towels were brought nor was our room cleaned). our shower head shot out crazy and the drain wouldnt drain. was awaken by a couple of cats fighting as well as the gate being slammed shut as other guests arrived through the night. also lots of homeless people loitering around the entrance, easily accessible parking lot with zero security. you get what you paid for i guess.

    I am originally from a developing country, and the condition of this motel reminds me of a ghetto in my home country. There are people living in rooms with a dozen cats, and the rooms are extremely filthy. The security gate is ineffective because the lock is broken, leaving it unlocked all day and night. My room is very dirty, and both the shower and bathroom sink are in terrible condition. When I step out of my room, I’m greeted by the strong smell of cigarette smoke everywhere.

    Horrible. Security gate door to the rooms didn't lock. Security was outside with a male that was drinking. There were people hanging out in front of the hotel and in the lobby. The lobby smelled like smoke. The room smelled like weed. The room door didn't lock from the inside. The comforter had cigarette burns. The shower head was low.

    From the ants in my bathroom that were all over the bathtub & on some of the towels, to my one and only large bedroom window that didn't close right & had no window lock at all, the front door which had a huge gap @ the bottom of the door and that's probably where the flies and bugs were coming in through, but let's not forget the big gaps around the entire perimeter of the door. Making it accessible for anyone outside ur door to actually look inside through the gap & get to clearly see you!! What a nightmare!!! very visible broken chain lock was still hanging there broken. After midnight the homeless were allowed to set-up camp with their carts and all in the side guest parking of the hotel. They were yelling, fighting, cussing and slamming the hotel gate metal bar door the entire night and morning. I got absolutely no sleep. They were right beside the office, only feet away and nobody ever came out of the office to say a single word to them. Major disappointment alll the way around.

    Check-in process was excellent and fast, front desk staff member Erin was awesome and helpful. The room itself was basic but fairly comfortable, however the floors were very dirty. I had to wash my feet off several times during my stay due to how dirty they were after walking on the floors barefoot. The rest of the room appeared to be fairly clean and in decent repair. Shower is meant for someone closer to 5 foot tall and the shower head is set extremely low.

    For starters we got to the hotel and they didn’t have our reservation. We spent 30 minutes trying to get checked in. We finally got our room and as we drove to the back of the building we saw lots of suspicious people roaming the parking lot, the walk ways smelled like urine, and there was people screaming and laughing loud enough that we could hear them in our room. Then we get into the room, it smells so bad. Extremely run down furniture and an uncomfortable bed. We stayed in there for about 15 minutes before we asked to get moved. In the next room we were checking for bugs when a roach ran out from under the bed. We left without hesitation. Only thing that sucks is we didn’t get our money back for the room and we were in the hotel for about an hour at most. Overall I would not recommend anyone ever stay here. It’s dirty, sketchy, and overall just felt unsafe. 0/10 stars
