Not only is it rude to assume such a thing, but we don't tolerate that here (hookers). Whether your accusations are true or not, if you had an issue with your neighbor being too loud you should have notified the front desk immediately and the situation would have been handled right away. As for the room smelling of cigarettes, when you request non smoking we do our best to accommodate but it is not guaranteed since we have a limited number of non smoking rooms. You were told before you checked in that we had no non smoking rooms left and you choose to keep the reservation and you signed your reservation sheet confirming that you were notified. Once you entered your room, if you then realized it was to strong for you, again, you should have notified the front desk and we could have either tried a different room or given you a full refund. We have someone in the office 24hrs a day to assist our guest no matter what time it is. How can we help you If you don't tell us that something is bothering you?We are truly sorry for your unpleasant stay and hope that maybe you'll book with us in the future and give us another chance.

Could do with some TLC
Dated motel in need of refurbishment. some repairs need to be caught up with but nothing was dangerous. Traffic noise was noticeable. I would use again in preference to expensive hotels/motels

The room wasn’t ready and the gentleman wanted me to wait an additional 45 minutes to get a room clean . This was an hour after check-in time. I needed a room so he gave me another at a higher price. The gentleman was very rude about it all.

The manager was very nice at check in. The property is quiet and the room was very nice. Was left alone the whole time. Great place. Only complaint was I had a man approach me outside and made me uncomfortable I went in too speak too the manager and he yelled, screamed and pointed his finger at me upset at me for the situation it was weird. Other then that it wasn’t a bad location

Needs improvement.
This hotel is so old and dirty. There was a used face towel left in the freezer and a used soap in a soap dish in the shower room. Comforter is dirty carpet is smelly. They dis not even have fitted sheet for the bed they used flat sheet instead. So if you want to get sick. Stay in this hotel. So unsanitary. I wonder if housekeeper even clean after guest check out.

Sorry that you did not have a good experiance with us. Once you checked in and noticed the room wasnt serviced by housekeeping you should contact the front desk right away so they can give you another room. If we do not know that we made the mistake of giving you a room that wasnt ready yet than we can not correct it.So always contact front desk immediately when you have any issue.Again sorry for any inconvience this caused.

met expectations
It was cleaner than I thought. The air conditioner was extremely loud and I could hear the people upstairs walking around. I had what appears to be a partially "upgraded" room- vinyl flooring and the trim was newer and not sticking. The bathroom light was missing a fixture as well. Overall, it was good for the price

Property is very old with no amenities; ice costs a quarter; very inconvenient. No coffee maker. Rooms are clean but very old; cockroaches in room. TV is super old school; no guide. The property is in a good location near many support services; however, it is clearly out of date compared to neighboring properties. The owner recently resurfaced and restriped the parking lot. The pool has not been open for a few weeks, due to maintenance. The neighborhood is sketchy. If you are going to stay near Disneyland, pick a place on harbor or Katella; its way less risk for the same price point.

Slum lords is about the best way to describe this substandard unit, rude militant arrogant management. I booked and paid for two nights, was forced to pay $10. for remote that they wanted to issued to me at office. I told told them I wasn’t even going to use it. If I didn’t pay deposit they wouldn’t issue me my room key. The only reason I only stayed 1 out of two nights is, room was already paid for (without ever seeing the room), it was nearly midnight when I arrived and no where else to go to at that time of night. Still trying to get money back for both nights. Side note: I’m 5’11” tall and the shower head was below the side of my face. Didn’t even use their shower and turned key and remote back to management the following morning and lady manager almost didn’t give me my deposit back to me just out of spite because I told them their room was substandard (nasty) and I wanted my money back which they declined to do. I’ll be making a claim to my credit card company regarding this business that should really be investigated by the health and fire department. What a slum!

Our need was just an overnight stay for a baseball tournament. The check-in process was a bit long but that wasn't a big deal. The carpet was stained and there was some type of shavings on the toilet seat cover and on the side of the toilet. The fridge was also in desperate need of a defrost. Functional.

The place seems good eventhough Expedia gave me one price it was changed to higher but not much. That was the only thing I had an issue but since the front desk gentleman has been nice I let it go. Overall for the price is better than the Travelodge on Euclid and Baker.

The middle Eastern man working the front desk in the mornings is very rude, disrespectful, judgmental, and racist. I had booked my reservation online and upon my check-in he refused to allow me to stay. He took my ID and treated me like scum. What a terrible experience.
