Calico Hotel has been my home for six months now. My room is always clean, with a very comfortable bed. I wish that there were some better restaurants close by. It is in close proximity to Knott's Berry Farm and Soak City, and other attractions.

The staff was friendly. They had a hard time understanding me on the phone and accurately answering my questions. The sheets, towels and blankets had stains and crusty spots on them. The pillow cases had holes and stains. There was old sour food in the microwave. The walls had stains running down them.

Was very skeptical of the stay because of the outside appearance, but the room was surprisingly clean and there was no issues with the area. Front desk people were a Lorne difficult to work with when I forgot my room key inside on accident, other than that we had a great stay here and were unbothered.

Please avoid this property if possible. My room was clearly not cleaned before I was set up. Went to the office to let them know and ask for clean sheets. Had to call 30 mins later to ask again. Was told to “come get it” and only gave me one sheet. Woke up with bug bites and found a bed bug. Bathroom had pee in the toilet seat and walls were filthy and very dirty.

Worn out dingy & overpriced

I always choose the lowest price with decent reviews. Our stay was comfortable, bed was nice, outlets and lamps adjacent headboard, nice touch, and quiet, AC worked well, but now the bad. Really run down. Owners are present, but some tlc is LONG overdue. Sink drain blocked, toilet is older than G*d, and despite 5 gallon water wasting flush, barely goes down despite holding handle. Missing electrical outlet cover next to bed. Not a biggy, but a wall plate costs .50, and plunge the sink? Pretty lame. Basically you get what you pay for, but one should easily be able to do better for $97 paid
