"We were uncomfortable with the neighborhood at first, but it turned out to be convenient, quiet, and safe. The motel room was attractive, and the bed was clean and comfortable. I slept like a baby.2018-06-24"
"Nice experience. Close to Cal State Long Beach. The hotel was clean and secure. I requested a quiet room on an upper floor, and that's what I got. The AC worked well, and there was plenty of hot water for showers. Check-in was easy, and the motel clerk was efficient, friendly, and provided a list of local restaurants. Adequate breakfast with excellent coffee. Walk to Loaded Cafe for excellent burgers; you'll have to drive if you want to dine at more upscale restaurants.2018-06-12"
"The motel room was clean, and the front desk clerks were nice. Great breakfast, too.2018-02-09"
"The motel was ideally located if you're going to the VA or CSULB. The room was clean but bare-bones. No microwave. Poor water pressure in the shower. The pool looked nice.2023-01-29"
"Don't have high expectations if you stay at this hotel. Nice view of the golf course from our front room, but the carpet was dirty, and there was no water for the coffee. There was hair on the toilet seat. We only got 1 key card for 2 people. The front desk clerk wasn't that friendly and didn't tell us where the vending or ice machines were. Close to the VA.2021-02-14"
"Great motel stay. The room was nice and modern. There was a cockroach in the shower, but we were given a discount on the shuttle for the inconvenience. The staff was friendly, and the continental breakfast was good. You won't be sorry if you stay here.2016-04-24"
"The floor was clean, but there was mold in the corners of the room. No in-room coffee, and the AC was noisy. The remote control batteries were dead, so it was impossible to watch TV. No stopper in the sink. The front desk clerk was friendly. Spend a little more and find a better motel.2021-10-17"
"Great motel if you want to go to the beach. I had no problems at all. The parking spots were best suited for small to medium-sized vehicles.2021-07-13"
"The motel was affordable, clean, and quiet. The room was nice. I didn't like the bed, but everything else was perfect.2020-03-31"
"The motel was clean, but don't expect much. I paid extra for a divided room with a sitting area, but the divider was just a 3-foot glass block wall and there was no overhead light. No tissue provided, and minimal towels. The hair dryer didn't work.2016-05-03"
"The motel was nice and clean, and the room was spacious. Worth the price.2016-02-08"
"The motel was really clean, but it looked more like a Motel 6 than a Ramada.2019-12-26"
"Clean motel with super great customer service.2019-04-06"
"Horrible motel. The rooms were filthy; I had to change rooms twice. The wallpaper was peeling and the wall was stained, the blankets were thin, and there were only 2 pillows. The toilet hadn't been flushed, the pipes under the sink were filthy, and there was mildew in the shower. Don't stay here.2016-03-16"
"I stayed at this motel for 2 nights and was really happy. I recommend staying here.2019-09-10"
"The room initially looked clean, but the bathtub was gross, and the fixtures were old. If you arrive after 7 PM, only one entrance was open, and the front desk clerk will head-count your party. The staff was unprofessional and rude. Don't stay at this motel.2015-07-19"
"Very accessible to the parks. The motel wasn't luxurious, but it was clean and adequate for our needs. Basic continental breakfast; we ended going to a fast-food restaurant instead. No frills, but we were satisfied.2016-03-14"

"Average accommodations, but I was impressed that the room had a fridge and microwave. When I mentioned that we had a wheelchair, we were given a 1st floor room. The curtains and room door needed to be replaced. The hotel clerk also told us a better and faster way to Disneyland. Good selection at the continental breakfast, though the milk dispenser had a slight leak. 2016-04-05"
"Cool spot for a weekend stay. Close to restaurants, the freeway, a gas station, and a liquor store. The motel was affordable, and there was nothing too bad about the place. Parking was tight. Book it.2021-08-31"

How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
