Spiders in the room and bathroom. Had to kill one so my son can sleep. Dead cockroaches on the bathroom floor. Why is this hotel so gross.? I had my children with me. The fridge wasn’t working. My food got wet on the bottom. I took pics and showed the guy at the desk. He didn’t know what to say. No apology.

The room was dirty. There was food or something splattered on the curtains and the wall. The beds were very uncomfortable. They only had three towels, no washcloth, no hand towels, no shower mat to step on when you get out. The room was so disgusting my daughter didn’t even want to take a shower. They also require a $100 cash only deposit for the room that was not stated when I reserved the room. It’s interesting they have ATM machine right outside the check-in window, I’m sure it’s so they can make money off the ATM by requiring the cash only deposit. You get what you pay for with this one. It would’ve been better and cheaper if I had just pitched a tent somewhere at a campground or slept in my car.

The property was clean, the location was excellent for a visit to Knotts Berry Farm as it’s across the street and priced affordably. Room was clean, spacious, but dated could use some updating. Did have a fridge, microwave and coffee maker. Our room had a distinct odor like staled cigarette smoke which linger all over us and our clothing. For the price and location I would stay again.

My wife daughter and I stayed here on short notice. Hotel is extremely convenient for those going to one of the parks next door. This is an Inn, not a hotel or motel, so understand what you are getting. Bad pillows, mediocre beds, no wash clothes, no hand towels, and only 3 towels for our 3 day stay. We requested towels each day and was given them each day but you need to give them the old ones and make the request (understandable but not convenient. There was a small fridge and microwave that worked well. Shower was good but hot water limited (never cold but not hot). Obviously the location is the attraction to this Inn. We will stay here again, but we will bring pillows and extra blankets.

The room was dirty, there were people smoking crack at the end of the parking lot, underwear hanging from the fence around the pool. There were DIRTY HAND PRINTS on the ceiling of the room! Stuff smeared all over the toilet. The shower looked like no one had cleaned it in months. Just horrible. We checked in then immediately checked out. We did not stay here.
