It was fine for the price. Nothing special but clean, did not smell bad and the bed was fine. Ok if you are just looking for a inexpensive place to stay for the night. Restaurants about 1/2 mile down the road.
I’ve stayed twice at this motel. The staff is very nice. The first time I stayed was better than the second. It’s a fine motel if you’re of the mindset you get what you pay for.

The staff was very nice and the room was nice and cozy.
I wish that there were bedside lamps. No A/C, but the weather at night was not too hot, so we were comfortable.
Reasonable price, so nice and convenient stay.
It was clean, well kept. Definitely lacking air conditioning but offered fans in lieu of a/c. Friendly and helpful. Easy to access off the highway. Definitely good if all you need is a spot to lay your head and get ready.

It’s clean and centrally located. Less than half the price of local hotels. Located just 100 feet from the 101 freeway, it’s slightly noisy. I would stay again.
Old place, quaint, but really run-down. There is construction right in front, making it quite dusty and noisy during the day. Price is on point, it is CHEAP, but don’t expect any amenities. There is not an ice machine. Next door to Strawberry Village, a nice shopping destination with a latprge Starbucks. And, In and Out is steps away!
It was a very nice stay. The beds and pillows were really nice and comfortable. It's older, but it has it's charm. It's right next to the freeway and you can hear the cars, but otherwise it was very quiet and peaceful. The only thing I wish it had was bedside lamps. Otherwise our room was had two rooms, one for each bed and I really liked that. The managers were very nice and helpful as well.

Room was clean & comfortable. No robe or towel hooks in the bathroom. Had to run the sink hot water in order to eventually get shower hot water. Staff did solve the initial TV issues.
Small and quaint. Clean. It is in the frontage road, so you do hear some traffic, but in the room it wasnt bad. There isnt an air conditioner, however, the room faced South, so it was a comfortable temperature

Disliked: Cleanliness
The walls in the bathroom were filthy all the way around. The light switches in the bathroom were also filthy. The shutters in the bedroom had goop on them. There is no place to hang any shirt or trousers, and there was no coffee.
There was one small plastic drinking cup individually wrapped in a package that had already been opened.
The staff was very kind and try to be as accommodating as possible.

Little noisy as it is next to the highway- very dated
From the outside you can tell the hotel had not been updated. The place just looked old and could have used a coat of paint. The interior was very modest and also needed some TLC. I spotted insects multiple times during my two night stay and one cockroach on my last day. Yuck! A lamp on the dresser near the bed would have been nice. The staff was nice enough to provide me extra towels. Good enough for me, but would have been embarrassed had I brought my wife here. Conveniently located to gas stations.
