Clean room, simple but nice place to stay. Is very pet friendly. I've stayed at this motel at least once a year for decades. Love this place.

Avoid this place. I thought the hotel had been remodelled, but that was clearly not the case. The showerhead was rusty and leaked rust into the tub, so I didn’t even shower. The wallpaper in the bathroom was peeling everywhere. The beds were very uncomfortable, and being right next to the freeway made it noisy all night. To make things worse, the owner/manager complained that we paid “too little” because we booked three months in advance. This is by far the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else.
