Train next door

Didn't have fitted sheets, Alien travelers blaring hispanic music loudly outside till midnight. What mattered was shower was clean, two flat sheets on bed were clean. No rug or carpet but floor was clean. Loud train blaring horn at night is right next door. Again music next door in the morning, I could hear there conversation and laugh through the wall.

A very comfortable old-school motel in downtown Gilroy. Nothing fancy, but you don't choose a motel for that purpose, and it was quiet despite being on the main road. Check-in was very efficient and the gentleman let us check in early. Soap was provided but not shampoo, so bring your own. Fantastic restaurant, Longhouse, located next door - wide variety menu of down home food with hearty portions at very reasonable prices. Would definitely stay here again.

They were never in the office. I had a ring the doorbell so many times and wait until someone came out. I never got a receipt. I felt like every time we asked for something it was so inconvenient. I only had one towel in the room go get more towels I had to go get an iron, and they were never in the office. One of the beds was so dirty and smell like pee. It was horrible.

Bedspreads were stained and torn. We refused to stay there.after seeing two such rooms. Proprietor said he would contact Expedia and cancel the charges. Apparently that did not happen. I am disputing the charge to my credit card.

I loved staying here! I needed a little vacation for a few days so the Kings Rest was a good pick. The owner man working the front desk was very kind. I had read some reviews before & they had said it was dirty but I don’t agree. It was very clean & my expectations were met. Yes you can hear people but that is only if they’re loud! If you turn on the AC/Heater you’ll be just fine. I would love to stay here again!
