Pros:

Little noise from adjacent units, but that was drowned out by the heater/ air conditioner unit right next to bed. For unexplained reason, the air conditioner compresser ran off and on throughout the night, while set for heat only. Other Hotels with this type of unit did not, and were much quieter. Staff could barely communicate, as spoke foreign language.

Pros:

YOU COULDN'T USE THE SHOWER. I CAN'T BELIEVE SOMEONE HADN'T PREVIOUSLY REPORTED THAT THE SHOWER HANDLE FALLS OFF WHEN YOU TRY TO SHIFT FROM BATH TO SHOWER. I TRIED REPORTING IT TO THE OFFICE IN THE MORNING BUT THE OFFICE WAS CLOSED WHEN I LEFT FOR WORK. ALSO THE KLEENEX BOX HOLDER WAS EMPTY.

I really wanted to like this iconic old motel
Pros:

This is an old motor court from about 1935. It’s right in a very busy intersection in an industrial area near a 101 off ramp. It’s run by a family with young children who live on the property and they are really trying to keep the place up. The outdoor area and landscaping are in very good condition. The room was clean and was furnished with used hotel-chain furniture which is fine. There was no clock and no hangers, plus the hanging space was over the nightstand. The lighting was iffy. The real problem is the dicey neighborhood. As a woman traveling alone, I didn’t leave my room after dark. I booked this as the cheapest last-minute room in the area. There is a Burger King on one side and a Carl’s Jr. on the other. The semi trucks began rolling by about 5am. This place is okay if you’ll arrive late, sleep, and leave early. Don’t bring kids. On the other hand, most of these old courts are gone so I was glad to have the chance to stay in one, though next time I’ll spend the extra money to stay in a more secure location. When’s the last time a “toilet was sanitized for my protection?”

Pros:

The place is small but sufficient for my need. It's great that it has microwave. The bathroom water wasn't always hot. It fits the purpose of just staying for the night. Great staff - very polite and respectful (I know, should they all be? In my past experience it is not always the case). The door lock system was a bit clumsy and it didn't seem to work every time. Otherwise, everything was fine.

There is no breakfast or gym,and it's in a bad neighborhood, but the rooms are renovated and it's a good bang for the buck.
