DO NOT STAY

The cleanliness was terrible. I had to clean the AC filters so the room would get cool. Outdated 80's bedroom furniture lamps and decor was dusty. The motel is a sister property to what looks like a more up to date motel and thats where you check in. The Formosa looks abandoned when you pull into parking lot. Their courtyard is abysmal with dead plants broken planters and cigarette butts everywhere. The only positive was there were multiple stores and restaurants very near. Definitely the 2nd worst hotel I've ever stayed in. NO NO NO

The best Customer Service overall experience. This hotel is definitely trained on professionalism. Thank you, Jackson, for your daily compassion in acknowledging your customers. You truly deserve the Manager title! Thank you to Nubia, housekeeper staff for your daily smiles and always checking in for room service. Thank you for your daily hard work! Thank you Formosa, you will definitely be my second home for my Central Valley Visit.

Awful

Terrible, my key stopped working more than once during my trip. The internet stopped working, the cable coming out of the wall was broken and when I went to talk to the clerk about it they blamed me! Said I’d be responsible for the damages that I had nothing to do with. Hotel is fenced off and you have to enter from the location next door. Would NOT stay here again.
