    I just didn’t like that the management charged early check in fees during my traveling stay. Other than that, the business is well managed and need room renovations when the owners are ready for new business regulations with their financial situations. (maintenance)

    Based on my experience, it is not a safe place to stay when there are metal bars outside the bedroom window. It is very hard to get out of the parking spaces. It is better to park on the street. The toilet was making a funny noise. I told the manager about it and he told me to close the door so that I would not hear it anymore instead of fixing the problem. The bathroom really needed repairs done. Crickets kept coming into the bathroom. They did not clean my room for the three days that I was there. I saw prostitutes coming in and out of this motel. Lastly, there were guests in this one room that were fighting and then they decided to take the fighting outside. This was a domestic violence issue in which the manager should have called the police, but he didn't. The woman was screaming and crying for help. I would like to point out that the owners or managers of this motel are from India. I would never stay at this motel ever again or recommend it to anybody else.

    The parking lot was the worst part of this experience. Trying to get out was a literal NIGHTMARE. Hearing people scream and talk at night, the bathroom light didn’t work. Good place to stay if you’re looking for a quick in and out, but not much else.

    This motel is infested with roaches. Bathroom is dirty with black mold. The furniture is full of roaches and you can tell they don’t bother to clean up the bugs. They don’t disclose anything at time of check in. When you complain they try to tell you that it’s normal to see bugs at night time. Do not waste your money here as they don’t care and just want to take your money.

    Pulled in and saw a hooker and her john both with pants half down leaving as we arrived. Got our room key with a $20 deposit. The $20 deposit also applies if you want a remote for the tv. Got to the room and da*n. Rotten food in the microwave with flies coming out before I could shut the door. The shower is just plain scary as was the bed. We stayed less than an hour and check into Wyndham a few miles away. I'm all about saving a buck, however, I would never, ever, ever, ever, ever stay in a slum like this place. This is the worst motel I've ever been in. If we didn't have the money we would have slept in the car...at least our car is clean and bug free.

    The room smelled like a senior facility. The toilet had splashes of crap on it when I first checked in and I ended up cleaning it up with sanitizer. The tiles in shower looked like a diy project half assed. The water kept turning hot and cold when showering. The heater/ac unit would first start off blowing heated air on low heat but would then start blowing cold air as if the AC switch kicked on even though on low heat setting. This place is located in Compton which is still a part of Long Beach. We all know about Compton. There were gangsters and prostitutes staying at the motel and chilling around the motel doing their business. By far the worst place I’ve ever stayed in.

    Arrived, checked in. Crackheads on property, barely any room to park. Left to pick up pizza and returned as there was no way to refund the reservation, even before arrival. After a quick review that made me want to not even be in that nieghborhood. After eating dinner.. Went to use the bathroom to find unflushed feces and a bloody tampon. The maid came and plunged the toilet per my request and left the plunger with me after sanutizing the toilet.. But left a trail of toilet water droplets all the way out of the bathroom. Barely slept at all due to much noise outsude and in the parking lot. The room was very small and poorly taken care of. Top 3 lists of hotels in the area I WILL NEVER STAY IN AGAIN.

    This place is horrible! Stains on the bed and towels that's not even the worse part, as soon as I got to Los Angeles this was the only place I used my European debit card the man working at reception takes debit or credit card and then asks for your pin, I tried to tell him that I couldn't give to him and that he should just give me the machine he says it can't fit through the window and he can't leave the office so the only thing left to do is either leave or give him your pin, I had no where else to sleep and didn't have cash so I gave him my pin the next afternoon $96 is is taken out of my account and it was used at a Seven Eleven in California. I still haven't confronted him or called the police yet because of lack of evidence. Do not give this guy your pin just pay with cash if you're ever gonna stay in this dump.
