Extremely happy with this stay! The Front Desk was extremely friendly and even gave my friend and I some recommendations on where to go and what roads to take. We were able to do laundry later that night after asking about it and got the laundry room door unlocked and left open for us, which I thought was very kind. Detergent and dryer sheets were also provided. The room felt very clean.
Clean, simply and comfy. High pressure and high temperature shower. New fridge and microwave, amazing shower, nice bathroom setup. Nice and welcoming staff. I recommend. ( The bedroom could have a little stronger light. Since it is a big space, I thought it was a little dark inside )
Well it is what it is . Kinda old and used but the Continental breakfast was very good . Good Bagels . The hosts are very courteous. The breakfast room is spotless, and there is cereal, milk, coffee,bagels, muffins jelly,cinnamon for your coffee, my king size bed was comfortable , and plenty of room in there . Drawers for you clothes , chairs and table, microwave and fridge.bed lights that are reachable while in bed . Good water pressure, good hot water, pool ,laundry room for an affordable price . No insect activity or rodents . That was good cause some places have problems . Handicapped parking . Soap and shampoo with the room , nice flat screen TV worked good. Very hot these summer day but the air conditioner was old looking but worked good . ,so good I woke up cold and had to unplug it for a while. It's Low priced so you get what you pay for. But all in all , I stayed four days, and me and my dog enjoyed it . H.Dover from Hesperia, Ca.
Nice clean spacious room, king size bed, bedding are nice and comfy. Rooms have microwave and mini frig. excellent service best in the area. Great price and restaurants close by.
Great place for the price. Clean, everything is working, good friendly service, all the basics you need for a quick stay. And, they even have a small pool.
Great place for one night I needed on the way to L.A. The owner was friendly and nice. The room was clean and renovated but still the furnitures were quite old. TV and mini refrigerator in the room, hot water overall I had a good sleeping time.
Great location right off highway 15. Lots of places to eat nearby. Beds were comfortable. They offer a free breakfast but decided to grab something to eat after checking out. Towels could have been a little softer but for the price we paid we were definitely ok.
Don't let the two stars fool you, this place is safe, well lite, and the rooms are accommodating. I will be staying here again when I'm in the area.
