“We Don't Recommend This Place”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 May 2007
2
people found this review helpful

This motel did not meet our expectations.

It was in a business area, and just off the California State 101 Freeway. In fact, too close to the 101 freeway. Fortunately the hotel is fenced off from it.

My husband and I saw a scruffy-looking man standing next to the hotel dumpster when we drove in. He kept looking through the hotel trash bin the entire time we were there.

The area around the hotel looked strictly business-like and a bit rough. We would never consider going outside at nighttime for any reason in that immediate area.

Also, when we went into the hotel room, we found mildew all around the bathtub area.

The room was small, and was very simple in decor. We still did not feel comfortable or safe, even in the room however.

In fact, we felt so uneasy, that we immediately went to the motel lobby and asked for our money back, and drove away quickly.
