Very well maintained and clean motel with comfy beds. Immaculately clean, but the smell of bleach was fairly strong when we first checked in - it needed an airing out. Would stay here again for its proximity to the Safari Park. Excellent value, too.

We stayed there a few years ago and liked everything about it, the grounds, friendly staff, and huge room, so we decided to use it again. It was just as we remembered it, but more up-to-date. We will most probably use it again if we are in the area and need a place to stay overnight. place.nplace..asasiroom

The power was out for 7.5 hours, the wifi was out for 9.5. It's the middle of summer, and this meant no AC, and the room refrigerators leaking onto the floor. SDGE (electric company for the area) listed it as a planned outage for that area on their website, which would have been nice to know when checking in. I've stayed here many times, and it's always been great. I'll likely stay here again. But they didn't offer any refunds, and also tried to say it was an emergency outage when anyone can look up the outage online and see it was planned...

Excellent stay. Two gripes

Very nice property I like the quaint size, the bathroom was super nice in the room but the tv was very old and not very good. Also there was an active construction site going off every morning pretty much right outside my door due to room location /: but with time that will go away. Not the owners fault in any form
