We'll be back!
Nice, comfy old-school motel. Super clean, very comfortable beds with crisp sheets. Awesome pillows. It's clear that the owners are continuing to make upgrades here and there. The only thing that did not go well was my inability to get some computer work done, as the Wi-Fi would not stay connected. I don't know if it had anything to do with the fact that we were in one of the rooms toward the rear of the property (Room 23). Other than that, we were very pleased with out stay, and we look forward to staying here again.

As others have said, very clean simple accommodations. Dated but that’s not a concern as the bed was comfortable and shower hot. Would stay again, budget friendly and good service!

Nice experience overall. Staff was nice and responsive and the room was well maintained. Room and services were quite simple as reflected in the price and what were exactly what we were expecting. There were no issues or bothers for us, neither from other people nor the area surrounding the motel. In short, it was a pleasant experience staying here and I’d consider stopping by again if I’m looking for a place to stay nearby.

The Good: 1. Location: Very accessible via the 101 and close to Solvang. 2. Very quiet- Guest really stayed to themselves and they were not noisy. 3. Easy and accessible parking. 4. Easy check-in 5. Price. 6. Clean despite rooms being really old. 7. AC worked fine and so did the fridge. 8. Good hot water. The Bad: 1. The key to the room was an actual key. They need to invest in a system that locks/unlocks doors with a card. 2. Even though checkin was easy. Nothing seemed to be computerized. All paper I guess. 3. Door knob was broken. 4. Room needs a really big upgrade. The bathroom was very outdated. Clean, but outdated. Light lap was broken. Tub was pealing. Shower curtain had a tear. 6. Bedding was from the 80s. 7. The most important upgrade it needs is BLACKOUT CURTAINS!!! The curtains let in so much light it was hard to try to sleep in. 8. It really needs some common area for guests to relax and unwind with some wine. 9. Also no iron in the room or coffee maker. Would I stay here? By myself maybe. With my family, no way! Also not sure if they rent to people for long stays but there was this old dude that had door wide open and was in his boxers shirtless laying on his bed. Not the Motels fault but yo some common sense ettiquete.
