The motel is clean, attractive, safe, and quiet. It’s Shanghai in a “shady” area of town. The staff is super nice and helpful! The rooms are clean and well stocked with toilet paper and towels. The bed is comfortable. I recommend this motel to all!

I didn't like the area. The Motel did its best to secure the property. Heard a gun shot at 3:36 am. Drove down looking for a shopping center and saw numerous prostitutes walking the street. (Aroura/Hwy 99) Nice people at hotel. To bad its location is very bad.

The shower was extremely slippery and the shower curtain is disgusting. It’s an old motel that they’ve taken and made it look very nice, but it is an old motel.

The staff were very helpful and friendly. I appreciated the security of having a gated parking area. The room looked very nice and was clean, and it had thick curtains to help block out light. The bed was a little bit too firm for my taste, but not bad. One little thing that would've been nice is for there to be room in the bathroom to put toiletries. There wasn't a counter, and there was just a small, light shelf stuck to the wall that wasn't stable or big enough for me to put my toiletry bag on. Overall, this was a nice place where I would stay again.
