I liked the short driving distance to the place we were going thats why I chose this property. We were just looking for place to stay the night and it kind of fit the budget. Still worth staying eventhough bed was little off [felt like falling of the edge] cause there was queen bed on top of two twin bed. Overall it was still good for what you pay for. Perhaps need more pillow. A/c was pretty good, fridge and microwave was helpful to make it easy to heat up food and kept drink cold. Even came with essential like bar soap, shampoo and conditioner.

I highly recommend this Motel

This is an amazing little, "mom and pop" Motel, not too far from Disneyland and literally right down the blvd from Knott's Berry Farm. This was my second stay at the Motel and I am impressed more with wach visit. The clean, crisp pool.. The extremely soft bed.. the fresh and clean exterior and the friendly, "mom and pop" check-in process makes us want to return again and again.
