This place has been here for as long as I can remember. A friend of mine is staying there. The rooms were clean and well appointed. The outside was very well manicured and looked very nice. Ample parking and just blocks from the freeway. The charm and nostalgia are evident as is the owners pride in the maintenance and upkeep of the property.

This place is awesome, its so unique & charming. Sweet vintage soda machine in the lobby. Great price, too. It's near the train track & the highway but the doors honestly do a great job at canceling the noise. We got a regular room, it came with a fridge, microwave, heat & a bigger bathroom than most apartments I've lived it. Definitely my top choice for any motel in this area

I had a jacuzzi tub room so it was cool. My only gripe is the owner and only person i seen there working, was NOT FRIENDLY in the slightest. He was rude and made me feel nerve wracked i was gonna do something wrong all night. Like mess up a sheet or dirty a towel if i wipe my hands. Then he inspectcs the room hardcore beforeu leave if u want ur deposit back. But other than that... It was awesome! Quiet, cozy, clean, and affordable.

This place is very peaceful except if work has to be done on a room, but still respectful, during respectful hours. I am a single female coming from west Oakland California, my stay is for four days and not one time have I picked up on anyone being creepy, nobody came in my room etc. I'm highly intuitive and can pick up on various things rather quickly. I really enjoyed this place it's much better than motel 6 that's for sure and much cheaper than any other motel or hotel $88 a night 7/22 . They have a mini fridge with a separate freezer enough room to put a few groceries in which is nice and there is a microwave with a nice size place for hanging your clothes. The bathroom is cute with this personal sized tub that looks like a mini jacuzzi. There is a nice size dresser to place your items clothes. The things I didn't care for is there is no shade to park in and because people tend to smoke in the rooms regardless of what the rules state the room was slightly musty, but overall I will continue to keep coming back every time I drive up here from the bay area!!!! I forgot to mention they have really nice bath towels way better than a motel 6... They cover your whole body!!! UPDATE: I had to remove one star for the fact that upon arrival and paying for my room I asked for a receipt and was told I'll get one when I checked out and I ended up staying longer than expected so im paying for more days then upon check out I asked for a receipt and still they couldn't produce a receipt so I really don't like that part. It's important when you run a business, to always keep it professional, even if it's a had written receipt. People need records for various reasons and my reason is for tax write offs so now I am unable to verify that I stayed in the hotel altogether. Not kosher... Please fix THIS...

Stayed here about 1-2 months with my boyfriend and our baby. Rachel at the front desk was so great! Nice quiet place with great rates. Safe for me and the baby while my bf was at work. Anytime I needed something they we're very quick to help me out

This place may have not all the up to date comforters and rugs in the rooms, but this place was so exceptionally clean and quiet and for $88 you can't beat that. The only thing I didn't like was the fact I wasn't given a receipt for my four day stay there. I was told I would get it upon check out, but never received one even upon specifically asking for one . Even a hand written receipt is better than not having anything at all. Some people need records for things like this for many reasons. It's important to be professional when you have a legitimate business, but other than that it was a pleasure being here and I will continue coming here when I'm visiting the state of Washington... Not D.C, Washington state.
