Safe, Friendly, and Excellent Breakfast – Perfect Solo Stop ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I checked into the California Inn for a single night during a solo road trip. Like many travelers, I was anxious about parking with a car full of personal belongings. However, my worries disappeared when I noticed the visible security cameras covering the property.The customer service here is excellent—the staff members were incredibly pleasant and helpful from check-in to checkout. In the morning, they served a great breakfast that kept me fueled for the next leg of my drive. I also noticed a nice outdoor pool on the property, though my schedule didn't allow time to use it. I would definitely stay here again next time I'm passing through Barstow!
