    Clean, like staying in my uncle's house in the eighties. If you want vintage kitsch, it's your dream. Downside: no modern amenities..wifi didn't work, the room ac setup is a tiny unit in the closet coupled with a loud fan in the actual room. I guess it's supposed to blow the cool air in? On a hot July night, outside was cooler than in. I roasted the entire night & resorted to taking a cold shower with my clothes on, then sleeping in the damp clothing. The only lock is the one on the doorknob & the windows don't open.

    This 7 room motel is set back from the street.

    I use this place whenever my SIL has a big function at her home. It's a Best Western so it's not a…read more5-star hotel, but the staff act like it is every time I've been there. And this was my fourth visit. I use this hotel because they have a jacuzzi room. Yes you read that right a room with a large jacuzzi that sits two over sized people easily! Bring your Epsom salts maybe a bath bomb if it isn't a sudsy type as they'll bubble up too much with any type of bubble bath. Sit as long as your can handle without shriveling up and I can guarantee you'll feel like a whole new person the next day! The shower isn't anything to boast about. As anyone who reads my reviews knows I hate standard fixed shower heads in hotels it makes them feel old and like the Bates Motel to me. So they lost a star for that but the water can be tempered to those of us that love super hot showers. There is a hairdryer connected to wall. I didn't notice if it's locked down or if you can use it say at the desk to sit comfortably while drying, but it's there nevertheless. This room includes a king sized bed that's comfortable. Not the most comfortable ever, but it does allow you to get in a good slumber. They have a few movie channels on the tube and you can plug in your own hdmi device. The hotel offer breakfast from 6-9AM daily. I wish hotels would adopt a 6-11AM attitude. Some people are actually on vacation and would like to get dressed then come down and eat as they leave for their adventure's of the day. It can interrupt the flow having to go down grab food as you have to get dressed to leave your room. But that's just my lil opinion. But I'd say if your in Cal City and looking for an overnight. This is the place!!!

    I had to stay for almost a week due to family stuff to include a funeral service, and cleaning out…read morea house. I was pleasantly surprised how clean the room was...! When I entered the room I could smell the bleach which assured me the room was cleaned. My room overlooked the parking lot so I could keep an eye out on my truck. The room was small but ok. There was a fridge and some complimentary coffee tea items. There was a small desk, a wardrobe to hang clothes, but no microwave which is ok. The hallway was quiet, no crazies in the lobby or hallways. The clientele is pretty much corrections, military and contractors. Staff were professional, engaging and helpful. If in CAL City, I do recommend this Best Western.

    I had 2 different stays on the same trip and they were polar opposites but all and all I'm going to…read morego with 4 stars for this one. I was greeted with all smiles by a very friendly and accommodating staff. Maria was very helpful, making sure I got everything I needed. On my first stay I was unhappy with the room, it was so hot and the AC unit just wasn't doing it for me. The room wasn't cooling down until about 2AM which made my nights rough working in the heat all day then coming in to a hot hotel room. The second stay was a complete 180! The room was far more spacious and the AC until did what it was supposed to do. The gym was nice and clean The room was quiet and very clean. Checking in and out went smoothly and had no problem whatsoever. Plenty of good eats in the area. If I'm in the area I look forward to booking another stay with this hotel.

    So this review takes place during the time that they are doing construction.. I am not sure how…read morelong construction will last but I think they have a fair way to go still. The upside is the rates are pretty good! I got my room for about $130 booked the day of. The next closest Hilton was $166. I am traveling on business so I was unconcerned with particulars. I gather most people stationed here aren't trying to spend more than a night here. It is basically in the outlet stores. If you love you some outlet shopping then you need to stay here. You are right in it! Again I wasn't there for all that. In fact I was in the the beginning of what would an epic head cold ... I'm talking voice changes and generally not feeling that sick but sounding sick enough to have people recoil when you spoke. They have a pool. I think it looks like the web pics, the breakfast is standard for the hotel brand. Nobody is very out of their way nice or helpful which is ok. It's not like most people aren't the one nighters. Anyway, my only knock is that even on the nicer room (so I'm led to believe) you can hear EVERYTHING. The sound carries . At one point I convinced myself I might be going mad ....sure I could hear folks talking normally and such....But I had AirPods in and faintly heard crying. I'd take them out and listen and try to find where it was coming from to no avail. Over and over, to the point I slept without AirPods on and near the window. Then I HEARD the crying and jumped out of the bed! Only to find that a tomcat (cat was orange and white which is a male 90% of the time, you can look it up) out doing a mating call and just tomcatting around! Outside my window, wanting to break up my family! The audacity! No kitty, you go holler at someone else! Still unlike others I didn't see any roaches or anything dirty. I think they are getting right. IMPORTANT: they have these sharp guards for the mattress that aren't flush with anything and trust and believe SOMETHING will happen to hurt someone's leg. A good slice or chunk WiLL be taken by each bed with this set up. Go on and check yourself.. use a white towel/rag with a bit of water and swipe in the each of these basically Game of Thrones style spikes and I bet someone will come up with blood. Might even be mine cuz I was got! You can slide out of bed and slice some leg off. Minus a star
