The room was clean, the bathroom was clean. The desk was a nice feature. Since we were a couple, we missed one conditioning shampoo. The pillows were a little lumpy, but it was in our price range and it was adequate for our needs for an overnight stay.

Room was clean and desk clerk was friendly. This hotel is just old and has not been updated in a very long time. No overhead light or lamps. There were three strip of lights glued to the wall, only two of them worked. Bath tub was peeling. Shower did not have a shower head, was just a hrs stream of water. The mattresses must have been a decade old. It was fine for a night, if we’d had to stay longer I would have changed hotels.

Nice experience overall. Staff was nice and responsive and the room was well maintained. Room and services were quite simple as reflected in the price and what were exactly what we were expecting. There were no issues or bothers for us, neither from other people nor the area surrounding the motel. In short, it was a pleasant experience staying here and I’d consider stopping by again if I’m looking for a place to stay nearby.

The Good: 1. Location: Very accessible via the 101 and close to Solvang. 2. Very quiet- Guest really stayed to themselves and they were not noisy. 3. Easy and accessible parking. 4. Easy check-in 5. Price. 6. Clean despite rooms being really old. 7. AC worked fine and so did the fridge. 8. Good hot water. The Bad: 1. The key to the room was an actual key. They need to invest in a system that locks/unlocks doors with a card. 2. Even though checkin was easy. Nothing seemed to be computerized. All paper I guess. 3. Door knob was broken. 4. Room needs a really big upgrade. The bathroom was very outdated. Clean, but outdated. Light lap was broken. Tub was pealing. Shower curtain had a tear. 6. Bedding was from the 80s. 7. The most important upgrade it needs is BLACKOUT CURTAINS!!! The curtains let in so much light it was hard to try to sleep in. 8. It really needs some common area for guests to relax and unwind with some wine. 9. Also no iron in the room or coffee maker. Would I stay here? By myself maybe. With my family, no way! Also not sure if they rent to people for long stays but there was this old dude that had door wide open and was in his boxers shirtless laying on his bed. Not the Motels fault but yo some common sense ettiquete.
