So this is the second time I have stayed at Discovery Inn . For the money it is a good option , it's very close to everything and actually clean . Bed is comfortable and the bathroom is big . It was a little loud this time due to some rude people next to me but that isn't the places fault . Room comes with nice refrigerator and also comes with a Microwave and Coffee maker .. read more

Perfect location, friendly staff, comfortable and clean rooms. Will definitely be back!

This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. It was my first time visiting Monterey, and I was really looking forward to the trip with my boyfriend. But as soon as we entered the room and went to the bathroom, there was a strong sewage smell coming from the toilet. The shower and sink were also very old and extremely dirty. On top of that, after turning on the air conditioner, I started sneezing nonstop and had a runny nose from allergies, which made it impossible to sleep. I had booked three nights, but by the second night, I couldn't stand it anymore and had to move to a different hotel. When I asked the staff to refund me for the last night, they said they would call me later, but I still haven't received any call or refund. This stay turned into a terrible memory. read more

This is a hidden gem! The rooms are clean and front staff is always kind and welcoming. My husband stays here several days a week and has never had an issue. read more

The room was nice. Bed was very hard and uncomfortable. When I tried calling, the number provided was not working. Mentioned it to the front desk upon arrival they stated that the number did work and provided me with a business card with the number. So if you plan to stay here, don't expect to get a hold of the hotel. read more

The bathroom and sink area did not seem as clean and modern as the rest of the space, but otherwise, the room was more than sufficient and quite beautiful. Wooden flooring and ceiling, great lighting, hangers, comfy bed, bedside outlets, flat screen TV, extra seats, temperature control (cooling/heating), hair dryer, and small fridge. No microwave in the room, but there are a couple available for use at the front office. Service at check-in wasn't exactly fast or efficient, but it was fine. Parking lot was pretty full when we returned late on a Saturday night, but luckily one spot left. Also, Safeway is around the corner for convenience, and the beach less than a 5-minute drive away. Good experience overall. read more

This hotel was okay. The room itself was nice. It's been refurbished in the last year. Management is not good. We stayed here in 2018 and the team was really nice. We were disappointed to find new management had taken over. There are no microwaves in the room (the owner said that there was 1 incident with a homeless individual apparently at another hotel and that's why they don't give any of their guests microwaves ‍). There is a microwave in the lobby but the hours are 9am-9pm. I've never heard of a lobby opening that late. And the one morning we were up late enough to use it, the lobby was not actually open (it was after 9am and should have been) and so the owner who was cleaning stopped and brought us in to the storage room with all the towels and washers to use that microwave Why? We had to stand around in the dirty room making small talk while our food warmed up. There is also no way to contact them other than the lobby. If you need extra towels or toilet paper outside of 9am-9pm you're out of luck. No phones in the room. No emergency number. Nothing. The room had a small fridge, wifi, and A/C. There are really no extra amenities at all but they do have the basics. There's parking and it's clean. read more

This is probably the worst hotel I have ever stay at. The first issue was the guy at the check in counter, he was very rude when me and my friends tried to check in and pay for our room. We were confused and wanted to get some clarification on the deposit. The second thing was the room had a weird smell. We paid a little over 500 for two nights and I am not happy with this place. The room is small, the fridge is located in the bathroom, we had a plastic cup to get a few ice, and the sheets were so thin. Not to mention the pillows look a bit yellow..... I would never come back to this horrible place. Not to mention THEY TOOK OUT 200 DOLLARS FOR THE DEPOSITE! THIS WAS NEVER MEMTIONED TO US AND IT TAKE UP TO 3 WEEKS FOR THE REFUND!! I do jot understand this "policy" they have and not inform their customers. I really wish I can give it zero stars. EDIT: There are black spiders in this hotel!! read more

Stayed here 2 nights, it's very basic, TV was weird and didn't work properly. There was dirt on the floors, didn't seem cleaned well. I called the office in the morning to ask for 2 extra towels and he told me they were not open until 9am, I asked if I cold come get them and he very annoyed said "No I'll bring them", then he brought them and was rude about it. Located in a decent area, lots around you. Good breakfast place called "The breakfast club" was 2 thumbs up and was in walking distance. Probably will find a different place next time. read more

Well Kept Hotel. This is a clean, well kept property. I stayed in a newly renovated room ( # 118 ), with good amenities . My favorite feature was a new wood floor -- more sanitary than carpet. My 2 nites here were very quiet. The cold weather was well matched with a very effective room heater. Best of all, the rates were excellent ( better if you book direct, too ). read more

Terrible room, we got one room, heater when turned on smelled like mold, and room smelled like fabulous cleaner and didn't flush - no water would push it down but the bowl would rise. when we got there. Great layout to fit 6 people. But when we came back from dinner the toilet was flooded and overflowing on the floor. They gave us another room and they were reaking of cleaner. The toilet paper actually had poop on it. Like come on at least replace with new toilet paper. Please do not come here unless you bring your own bedding and like the knowledge that they are hiding mold here probably. read more

Discovery Inn - Poop on toilet paper - Hotels Near Me - Seaside, California

My husband and I stayed here a couple weekends ago. We had a pretty decent experience at this hotel. We were looking for something affordable but not too low quality or cheap and scary. We found this hotel for about $80. We knew we would be out all day at the aquarium, and cannery row so there was no need to get something super nice or spend $150 for the average chain hotels. We arrived early with our 4 month old baby. As we entered into the parking lot we were pleasantly surprised at how cute the place was. We asked to check in early but they said the room was not ready and to come back in an hour. As we waited in the car trying to figure out where to go eat, the man signaled to us that we could check in after waiting maybe 5-10 min. We were very grateful for this! Upon entering the hotel room, it was clean and cozy! The bathroom was very dated and cold but otherwise the room was cozy! At night the walls were super thin so we could clearly here our neighbors which made it hard to sleep. The bed wasn't comfortable. There was no microwave to heat up our food. The iron had to be picked up at the front desk. At the end of the day this hotel did the job, It provided us a place to sleep that wasn't scary and that was affordable. We were out all day and were only there for one night to sleep, wake up, and head out the next day. If we wanted to spend more time in the hotel or stay longer, we would probably choose something a little more comfortable with a few more amenities. Overall we enjoyed our stay here and the friendly hellos and smiles from the staff! I'd recommend for anyone who will be out and about, busy and not staying long or desiring to lounge around and relax. read more

I needed a place to stay last minute for a family member and they were so accommodating. Got them a room which was newly remodeled and very clean. Staff was extremely friendly which is always a plus. On top of that the price was great! read more

Zero customer service skills, and lack of basic mannera. Prior stay, commented staff was looking at us like we stole sometuing. Booked on another occasion, ,vupon check in , i vave id to clerk, suddnly another higlhly agitated person stepped in, excitedly telling.me my reservation was.cqncelled due to my bad review!!!!! Instead of improving cust service, they retaliated against me. Not decent,people, steer.clear. Waiting to ntify guest of cancellation at check in? You gave a bad review! is he reason given. No class. read more

Glitter on bedding and pillows and chairs. It is obvious that housekeeping did not clean the bedding. I told the front desk in the morning as I was too tired to have them switch the bedding, but the man gave me a blank stare. Real awkward. Towels are like sand paper. Many questionable stains on the paper thin comforter. "Garden view" is really just the parking lot. read more

Staff is very nice. This is a no frills place. If you just need a decent place to sleep and shower, it will do. If you want ambiance, a pool, or spacious rooms - this place is not for you. There are no ironing boards, coffee machines nor even a laundry bag in the room. They do provide a mini refrigerator that you will have to plug in when you arrive. You will also have to turn on the wall AC/ Heat unit. The towels are clean but thin and worn. The decor needs to be updated. The walls are very thin so if you have kids or want privacy - I would not recommend it. The Breakfast Club restaurant located in the strip mall next to the motel is THE BOMB! read more

Excellent service. Clean room and very friendly staff/owners. I would highly recommend staying here.

A diamond in the rough? Because of the Sea Otter Classic this weekend finding a room that would not break the bank was nearly impossible. I am one of the dive pros and am in Monterey every weekend to dive so I really needed a room. That's when I found the Discovery Inn. Pulling onto the property I was very pleased with how cute and beautifully landscaped this tiny motel was. Entering the office to check-in I was met immediately by a wonderful, professional, courteous gentleman who had me checked in quickly. Oh, and I paid with my debit card with absolutely no issue. Entering the room I was very pleasantly surprised. It was roomy and the bathroom area was huge, especially the room with the shower/tub and toilet. The decor is nothing exciting. I don't think these rooms have been updated since the first Reagan Administration. However, they were well maintained and clean, and I can't slight them for that. If I was looking to walk onto a page straight out of Architectural Digest I would not be staying in a motel. The shower was hot with wonderful pressure. The ceiling fan and climate control made the room very comfortable. The TV has tons of channels and the bed was so comfortable I slept like the dead. This isn't the Ritz Carlton, but if you are looking to save some money in beautiful Monterey California it's worth considering the Discovery Inn. read more

We made a last min decision to visit Monterey and the only hotels left were 800 to 1k a night until we found this gem. Beautiful flowers all around. AN older place but very clean. I left my purse and wallet with money and credit cards behind and left it in my room. The STAFF kindly saved it, wrapped it up so,FedEx could pick up for me. This is an honest establishment and I would highly recommend. read more

I have mixed feelings about our two night stay in Room 117 (the two room suite configuration). At check-in, we were charged up front for both nights. When I questioned this, the nice owner of Indian descent said that is how they do it. I was a bit taken aback, but went with the flow. The room was, for the, most part, very pleasant and large. But, it was a bit dated. The plug-in refrigerator worked very well. Unfortunately, there is a developing mold problem in the bathroom. If you are given 117 I'd take a look before paying. Now the issues which caused me to lower the rating from a 3 (average) to 2 (below average) rating. We are here mid-week (Tues and Wed night) as we are touring the Monterey Bay area and CSUMB. Based on the cars in the lot, there may be three or four rooms reserved. We rented a convertible and wanted to take the 17-mile drive on our last day before heading up the coast. I asked for a late check out to 1pm so that we could store our luggage so we could lower the top of the convertible. The owner didn't even consider my request and said he needs to turn the room for a family. Granted, if check in is at 4pm, that would give them a full three hours to turn the room. Then I asked if we could have our luggage stored and he simply said 'no.' That's a shame, because we now must find alternate plans for the day. What irks me about this is the lack of customer service on such a simple request. There are 10, maybe 12 vacant rooms, and we can't store our luggage for two hours? We treated this gent nicely, and gave a daily generous tip to the cleaning crew. We had very nice conversations during our morning visits to get the complimentary coffee and danish. So, I'd have to disagree with the rudeness comments left in other reviews. But, unfortunately, there was no reciprocity. The owner is simply not very customer service-oriented. I will likely be returning often to the area if my kid attends CSUMB; I'll have to choose another motel in the future. Update: we drove to a nearby hotel and the front desk manager without hesitation very kindly offered to store our luggage. We enjoyed the 17-mile drive with the top down! I know where I'm staying next time. The initials are ES (a Hilton property). read more

Great location ,the owner was nice upon arrival the room was very clean.quiet and peaceful

First think for the reason I don't come back here it's the costumer service my check in time are at 2:00pm but when I go to check in the rude old men omg are so aggressive and tell me ¡you need to come at 3:00pm! And I asked why ? If my reservation says at 2:00 he tell me if you wanted at 3:00 you come back if you don't we no returns payments and I say wait you need to be kind and don't talk me like that !! Ok I think this are a strategy for the costumers go mad and don't come to check in and they keep you payment with the police ( no cancellation with minimum 48 hours before you check in time turns in full payment charge with no refunds or credit ) 2nd point is they ask for deposit if you broke or make something to the top. But surprise the room it's old the tv stand are peeling off has scratch's all the furniture and drawersare scratches and the smalls tables are broken in the restroom the toilet is loose the tissue paper box is empty the tv on the second room don't works ( we take a suite with 2 bedrooms) and the lamps are loose too!! So we go to tell the personal about all that mistakes and he say ¡ we know how we have our rooms if you don't like sorry but is what we have! So I'm conclusion this hotel look super good quality outside when you enter (like my picture) but in the rooms it's totally other stage !! And also they don't give you like a hour extra for check out you know they take a hour of our normal check in hour and the men say nop you need come and check out before 11:00am !!!' Honestly if you go to vacations to pass a good family time don't go this place this place makes you date totally unpleasant read more

So it said it was a 5 minute walk to the Beach and the pictures was deceiving so the pictures are wrong. Everything is older. It's cold has heck cause the top sheet is so thin that I actually had to turn the heater on. You get what you get for the price I guess. I was hoping to see the view of the beach like it showed and be able to just walk to the beach with the kiddos. Nope. No microwave only got a refrigerator. It's close to a lot of other things and 711 is where you can walk to it if you needed anything. read more

So this place is obvious not your Ritz-Carlton nor even your Hilton nor even your local Best Western. However, it isn't terrible. In fact, it's so "not bad," it's decent, haha... We usually stay in little inns in Pacific Grove, but I found a good deal over the Memorial Day weekend here and just had to snatch up that room for 2 nights. We came down on Sunday and checked out on Tuesday. There wasn't any obvious falling apart furniture, ceiling/floor tiles, or plumbing problems, so we were ok. We drove up and I checked in, I already read about the grumpy old Indian guy so I was neither surprised nor annoyed. He was funny actually, b/c I expected him to be as described in previous reviews, so I just felt sorry for him b/c he looked so unhappy and miserable, but I didn't get mad at him or felt like I needed better service. I wonder if he's the franchisee or owner, but he mentioned about the very strict no smoking and no cooking rule and said "they" would charge us if we violated that, so maybe he just works for the franchisee/owners. He checked us in, gave us the keycard, charged my cc and we were set. We got Room 114, it was further down from the entrance so less noise from the main street. We got a King bed which fit us and the two kiddos ok. I think we were so tired from all the outdoors activities we did each day that we napped and slept just fine each night. The shower was strong and plenty hot enough, the sink was good, the mini fridge was bigger than I thought and since they have a very strict rule of NO cooking in the rooms, there's no microwave and that was fine. We ate out or ate fruits/yogurts/snacks when we did need to eat in the room. I guess they had guests who cooked and burnt stuff or cooked up a lot of smoke that damaged their rooms before and that's why there's a strict rule that would fine you $200 if you have been found to have cooked or smoke in your room. The bedding was ok, not great, but not dirty, there was one little hole found in our fitted sheet, but I didn't see any stains. The towels were pretty thin and one of them had a stain, so that was no bueno, but we made do with the clean ones. Overall, it's like a Days Inn quality place and looks better inside and out than the Travelodge down the street. Seaside is a great location, very convenient to many fast food joints, there's a Safeway very close by, and there's even a Costco within a mile or two. Lots of gas stations, quite a few little boutique stores although the higher end places are in Pacific Grove and the touristy shops are in Monterey (which is exactly why we don't like to stay in Monterey as it's a tourist trap). Oh, almost forgot to mention that the breakfast is just dry cereal in one of those turnstile machine things (generic corn flakes on one side and generic cheerios on the other), milk, OJ (from a machine, so you know, the super sweet "juice" from concentrate which hubby loves, haha), coffee (but no decaf), tea bags, hot water, quarter-cut muffins from Costco (my kids loved those!), smaller danish (we didn't touch those), and that's it, but it's good enough to supplement yogurt and fruits that we bought ourselves. The verdict is that hubby approves and says it's better than the Sea Breeze Inn that we stayed in Pacific Grove last time, so he says we can stay here again if we come down again and there's no better place for the price. ;o) read more

If you don't really care about having a good memorable experience on your trip, then go ahead and book this hotel. A lot of things are wrong with this place: First of all, our encounter with the owner of this place was horrible. He was straight up rude and unfriendly. He didn't greet us or anything when we went to check in. He asked for our name and ID and just gave us our card. He didn't even tell us what room number we had. As we were going to look for our room, he kept FOLLOWING US. Like we were up to no good. Uhm, prejudice much? Even when we went into our room, his wife stayed at the door. It felt really uncomfortable. As for the interior of our room, it was REALLY dirty. The bathrooms were stained with an orange or red stain. It was also on our towels too. Rust? Not sure but it was pretty gross. During the winter, it's pretty cold. It reaches about 42 degrees in the early morning. You'd expect some comfy, warm blankets, but guess what, we got thin bed sheets, and the heater was broken and only blew out relatively warm air to only a certain corner. So everyone was cold the whole night! The people staying next to us were up all night laughing and partying too. The walls are so thin. Idgi. I personally didn't like how little privacy you get in the room. Like you'd have no space to even change your clothes without one of your friends looking. Overall, I did NOT enjoy this experience. If you really want to enjoy your vacation, go for ANOTHER place. Most of them offer relatively the same price anyways and most likely GOOD HOTEL SERVICE. read more

Very accommodating, we were so happy with the check-in process, the communication from the front office and the great location!

This is a little 20 unit, single floor, rambling rancher type Motel on the Monterey peninsula, where there are scores of these type of places. A Mom and Pop owned Motel, which are usually pretty booked, because there is always something going on the Monterey Peninsula, from music festivals, sporting events, to antique car shows and conferences. On busy weekends in the summer, with all the tourists coming to visit the beautiful area, it is often hard to find any room not booked well in advance. I picked this one because it happens to be within walking distance of my closest relatives, and instead of encroaching on their space and hospitality during the regular holiday visit, I booked 2 rooms here instead. The rooms are decent sized, clean, fairly well maintained, but they are circa 1970s construction, so don't expect anything like a newer chain hotel, this is a motel. It is locally owned, and reminds me of the movie early in Denzel Washington's career, called Mississippi Masala, about an Indian owned Motel in the deep south, and the taboo-ish romance between Denzel and the owner's daughter. Not that i was doing any romancing here, no, just that it is Indian owned and a motel, like the movie. If there is a beautiful daughter here I could meet, I didn't see her. Actually, I think there is a son, because a friend of mine who teaches at the local junior college might know him. Anyway, the rooms are clean, the beds are modest in size (in other words do not compare this to a king sized luxury hotel, ok?), the carpets appear pretty new, there is a refrigerator in the unit, and you park right outside your door. I think it offers a free continental breakfast, too, but I didn't check it out, and not sure where this would be. You are right in the triangle between Monterey, Seaside, and Del Rey Oaks. So you can head out to Laguna Seca in about 15 minutes (well, not including race traffic), you're 5 minutes to the Fairgrounds for the Blues and Jazz festivals, and downtown Monterey is 7 minutes away, and Carmel about 10 (all by car). You could walk to Safeway, Starbucks, 7/11, Walgreen's, or a couple of casual but non-chain restaurants on Fremont Blvd. The parking lot has some pleasant flower bushes against the opposite wall. It is still old school metal door keys, which you drop off in the slot when you check out, meaning you pay for the night when you check in. But it does have Free WiFi. I got 2 separate rooms around Thanksgiving for a total of $102, including taxes. And I didn't have to struggle with the relatives to get to sleep. This is the 140th different hotel/motel I have reviewed on Yelp, not. Many repeats never updated! Whew! read more

At which point I blurt out, "are you f*$%in serious? 6am on a Sunday morning?!?!?" Apparently our neighbors' escapades had been going on for a while, but I had missed most of the show! That totally sucked, since this was my first hearing-through-the-wall experience! I was hoping my first time would last a little longer . . . my girlfriend tried to console me, and told me that it happens all the time, especially to heavy sleepers like myself . . . I'm still a little disappointed Other than that (though some might see it as a bonus), the motel was quite clean, had free HBO and Wi-Fi, AND was only $49/night (weekend no-less) for two double beds! A single queen-bed room was only $35/night! There were three of us though . . . getting our scuba cert's down in Monterey, so we needed the extra bed. The free continental breakfast consisted of Costco danishes, but hey, I wasn't even expecting that! The inn is only about a 5 minute drive to Cannery row and the scuba pier, and also had parking spots in front of each room . . . 4 stars because it was just what I needed and cleaner than expected! Just keep in mind that this IS a budget motel, so don't expect anything fancy. I just needed a place to crash between dives! read more

My friend and I found this place on Yelp while we were driving into Monterey at about midnight, desperately needing a place to crash. The rate was decent and the reviews were the same. I was actually pleasantly surprised at the cleanliness of the room and everything went very smoothly. Would definitely recommend. Five stars for price and cleanliness! read more

This place deserves zero stars. We checked in on December 22nd and stayed in room 107. The lady at the counter was very rude, when I tried to pay with my debit card she told me there was a $100 cash only deposit for all debit cards. This was never mentioned to me when I reserved the room and when I asked her why she handed me some garbage about how, "its policy everywhere." I recently stayed at a Motel 6 in Watsonville that was much nicer than this place and they never charged me a deposit so I know she was full of crap, but it was almost 10 at night and we needed a room so I paid it. We got to the room and it was very dirty, and there was an easily 30 something year old mini fridge that kept making noises all night and kept us awake, I would not recommend this place at all. Like I said I recently stayed in a Motel 6 so for the money I don't expect to be treated like royalty but you can at least clean the rooms and as for your surprise $100 deposit, we didn't appreciate that at all... Very bad place... read more

A 3 night breakdown of our stay at Discovery Inn: The cons: -Loud partying and drinking next door from group of rotating grown adults that lasted days (parking lot barbecue) and multiple nights. - The owner was rude and dismissive upon check in and over the next few days. It seemed like he wanted to be anywhere but there. Could be seen pacing the parking lot through the window multiple points through the day. - Bathroom had a permanent interesting aroma that worsened with open window. The pros: - Free coffee in the lobby from a little machine. A lot of available info and pamphlets were in the lobby on sights, attractions and things to do in surrounding area. Incredible Mexican food place Taqueria Zarape is literally just across the street. What I would expect from a hotel like this. read more

Do not stay here unless you love rude customer service. My family was staying at this hotel since we came into town for a funeral. After traveling all day long and having an emotional day my family and I were excited to check in and freshen up and wait to meet up with our other family who were staying elsewhere . When we went to check in we were told we were not allowed to stay or check in because we had to many people than the room allowed (not all of us were staying) there was only 4 of us one was a child and the other was an elderly relative who was waiting with us to be taken to where our other family was. He told us to we can leave but no refund. We tried multiple times explaining the situation and he was not willing to understand and just let us freshen up and relax for 15 minutes. So please be smart and go else where it is not worth the problematic employment and lack of respect. read more

Based on the reviews I've read.. (Yelp, trip advisor, expedia, etc.) I honestly came to this place with low expectation and dread. I thought the hotel was going to be "sketchy." Turns out, I was hugely mistaken. This place was not bad at all! It was clean and neat, and the house keeping staff cleans your room everyday. Not only that, but they also replace your towels and necessities on a timely basis. The only downfall was that they did not have any microwave, but the staff offered to let us use his personal microwave, which was kind of nice. This hotel was centrally located. There's a Carl's Jr and Burger King literally next door to the hotel. There's also a Safeway and Walgreens across the street, which was really helpful, in case you forgot to pack some toothbrush, or need some late night snack. They are also 1 mile away from "Sand City," which is their mall. Sand City has Ross, Target, Chipotle, Home Depot, etc. This hotel is also conveniently located by the CA 1 HWY and other freeways. Over all, I had a great stay and would definitely stay there again! read more

I have been to almost all of the least expensive motels in Monterey and seaside. This is the best of those simply because it's the cleanest, the neighborhood is better than some, the breakfast will fill you up- beware the muffins are cut into sections, I guess to avoid muffin waste. The coffee is good, but it kinda sucks that you have to go to the office for it- no coffee maker in the room. The rooms also have a lot of space. The owner is quiet, he doesn't talk much. Some have said 'rude' in their reviews, but I would say he could use a hospitality class. Good find read more

Discovery Inn - The room is spacious - Hotels Near Me - Seaside, California

There's really nothing to discover at Discovery Inn but it sure is cheap and worth it if you don't plan on sticking around. $60 on a Wednesday night got us a double queen-size bed. The only thing in the room that looks relatively new is the flatscreen TV. It has the feel of a family-owned business. There is an Indian lady at the counter who can be rung up at any time you need something. There's coffee, pastries, and cereal served in the morning. There's not much to see here and less than 20 rooms but this place never reaches full occupancy. It's close enough to all the tourist attractions to drive but not to walk. read more

I approached the window to check in with my friends after a long day of driving. We had multiple cars so one of my friends was trying to ask the man about parking. Apparently the guy checking us in didn't want to hear it and immediately put his hand up in my friends face to tell him to stop talking. The gestures/attitude we got from the front desk clerk was one of the rudest encounters I've had from a hotel. Not to mention they take a $100 deposit that is no where mentioned under their reservation policy AND is not guaranteed that you will get it back even if you leave the hotel room in the condition it was when you got there. What a complete rip off. Don't waste your money here.. read more

Checking into the hotel was a horrible experience. The front desk clerk was very rude and unwelcoming. The room was awful, the TV didn't work, the bathroom fan was so loud. The AC/Heater combo didn't work as well. The walls were paper thin and I could hear the couple next-door arguing all night long. Usually we stay at Sand Caste Inn and love it, but it was booked for the night. Super sad and disappointed. We only stayed here because of our track day at Laguna Seca. read more

Another middle Eastern run motel that does not want your money. I booked a room online. Paid. With my card. Went to the motel. Thean looks at my card and says he won't accept it. He said it was a prepaid card. Its actually a. Direct Express card issued by the government that my ssi check. Goes on to. I say, may I pay cash then. He says. Yes, but if I pay cash i have to put down an extra 109 dollar cash deposit. Is it refundable. He says sometimes. As I cancel the reservation and am leaving I ask the man, you realize your losing money doing business this way and he just kinda smiled and put his hands up like oh well what can ya do. read more

Average at best. Very strange and cold check-in from the Indian owner. Rooms are clean but have very outdated furniture. Breakfast is a joke and should not be called breakfast. This is an OK place to stay just for one night as a resting point. read more

Good price, great location. The beds were a bit firm for us, but that's not exactly a bad thing as they weren't lumpy. The top blanket was pretty warm and the heater works well. The only reason this is a three star is because there is neither a coffee pot nor a microwave in the room, plus the bed was way too firm. read more
