"My cousin stayed here and said it was out of date and needed a refresh. It was loud off the freeway so they moved his room, but I’d love a nice spot in the neighborhood and I think others would come if it was renovated."

"No longer a hot tub, just a pool. We arrived at 515 for Happy Hour and the food was gone and wasn’t going to be replenished. Glad it was offered. Rooms are always large and roomy and well equipped. "

"I found the whole hotel very clean and well maintained. I know it’s an older structure, but they take good care. Pool area really pretty, cabana area comfortable with a water purification system for our water bottles and even BBQ’s and laundry for guest use. I highly recommend! "

"Details: Second time staying here, and it remains the best bang for the buck in the whole area. I love the motel-style layout—you can park right near your room, haul your bags up one short flight of stairs, and you're in. Our room was spacious with an amazing kitchenette. Nice touch: there's a heat lamp on a timer in the bathroom. Even though our room was right on the highway (and sounds usually bother me), I couldn't hear traffic at night. The beds were comfortable, and while I'm not a breakfast buffet person, my family loved it. Let me be clear: this is not a fancy place. There are other hotels in the area that are spotless, quieter, and more of a destination—but they'll cost you significantly more. This is a jumping-off point, a great stop on the way to the Bay Area with very easy highway access. The staff is professional and courteous. You'll see all kinds of travelers here—lots of families taking advantage of the good rates and extra space. If you need everything to feel pristine, this isn't the place for you. It has old charm, and while I don't like hotels to feel dirty, this place does have some scuff marks here and there. But the price makes it worth it. Save yourself some money and stay here—just don't expect a fancy resort. It has some wear to it, but it's clean and quiet and totally worth the value."

"Very friendly staff and very welcoming. Homie vibe and comfortable. The place is so clean and things you need are all there. Highly recommended. I would come back to this place. "

"The hotel was very nice "

"Very clean property, really fast check in, our room was very nice also. We would definitely stay here again. "

"No amenities, breakfast, bad attitudes no accommodations and the guest are sketchy activities for out of towners seeking family friendly space, go to a real BW Express or plus not these. VERY BLACK DIRTY FLOORS FEET GOT FILTHY IN ROOM. I mopped up and the towel went BLACK! "

"The staff were great and we so enjoyed this fun unexpected find! Free parking was included and an amazing breakfast was unexpected! We enjoyed it in the library but the open courtyard was beautiful too. Perfect in warmer weather. The bed was comfortable and plenty of hot water. There are stairs only to the second floor so plan for that."
