Worstplace i have ever stayed

Horrible place to stay. People hanging out in the hallway all night long. Broken furniture, tv did not work, it smelled weird, neighbors were loud,. The pictures on hotels.com did not match the rooms at all.

Excellent! The owners are very nice to there guest. The rooms are clean and come with a microwave which is rare in these days. I would stay again when I come back to Santa Maria. It is a very quite hotel in a great location next to the store and a few great restaurants in the area. Thank you for having such a great hotel.

I’m giving this review a three star rating because the front window curtain did not keep the light out from the outside and no window covering on the second window. Light in the room kept me awake all night.

couldn't even check in, owner decided to try and charge me a $50 deposit because he didn't like the fact that I had already paid and got the room for $61 when he was trying to charge me $120 cash up front when I informed him that I have already paid on hotels.com and he saw how much I paid then he decided to put on a $50 deposit which he has never done ever and I stayed there multiple times. when I told him no I don't have any more money I couldn't do that he's never done that to me before he turned around and walked away wouldn't even take hotels.com's customer service calls trying to resolve the issue. about 5 minutes after that I proceeded to watch him check in another customer that had paid on a hotel site already as I did and paid a low price like that and did not try and charge him a $50 deposit at all. the deposit wasn't an issue if it was listed on it I would not have chose that room or that hotel but I've stayed there many times and I know there's not a deposit. my issue was that he decided to charge me a deposit after he realized th

We stayed in room 206 and it was pretty decent and comfortable for 1 night. The a/c unit worked great all night, the room does have hardwood floors and it was clean. The lampshades were outdated and dirty. It does have a desk to work on and there’s a TV. No small fridge . Bathroom was cleaned. There’s only soap bars, no shampoo in the shower.

Would not recommend, and frankly I’m not sure how this hotel passes inspections. Felt unsafe and didn’t even spend 5 mins in the room to know that my family was not going to stay. Photos are deceiving!

We were surprised to find only three pillows on the king sized bed, but we were given another one when we requested it. The bed was comfortable, but the head of the bed is across from the sink area with a noisy old refrigerator and a bright floodlight beaming in through the uncovered window above the fridge and it was very hard to sleep with this shining on our faces all night long!

This place is a complete dump. DO NOT STAY HERE!! Walking in the room several big holes in the walls that have been freshly patched not even painted, smelled horrible and in plain view a nasty long hair on the bed was the final mark to get us out.. we did not stay and they would not approve my refund trough Expedia.
