Worst hotel I have ever stayed at

This hotel was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at in my lifetime. I have travelled a lot and this was the worst experience I have ever stayed at. There was no one at the checkout desk and the door of the hotel check in was locked. Finally someone came and made me pay a $100 cash deposit for the night. It had to be cash and they had an ATM at the door. Then the cleanliness of the room was appalling. The room smelled of cigarette smoke in a non smoking room. We were on the second floor and the back window opened completely without a screen. The bathtub had dirt stains and the shower head leaked and sprayed outside the curtain. The sheets and blankets on the bed smelled of smoke and had cigarette holes. Worst of all we had guests next to us who stayed up yelling and slamming doors until 1:00am in the morning.

Roaches, smell, not very clean.

The two rooms we got had roaches and a strong smell. Possible bed bugs as well, as soon as we put our stuff down every body started itching. The restrooms also had leaks in the shower. We were a party of 9. We went to the front desk to get a refund so we could go elsewhere but they refused stating 15 minutes had passed since check in. We were all tired from our trip and just wanted to get some rest. The only thing they did was to offer us another two rooms for our stay. The other rooms did not have roaches but everybody was skeptical so they slept on top of the quilts. We did not get much rest :(

Nice for the price, Entertainment right across the street. Friendly staff, easy check in process, big beds, nice pool, beat other competitor's prices which worked out perfectly for a Mid July stay. Bad problem was tight parking spaces, at times noisy, loose door not too secure, interesting smell coming from the room. But overall not bad for the money:)

Simply dirty

It started off good, the appearance of the motel was approachable and didnt seem horrible, but as I started to look closer at the details I realized how poorly kept the place really is. The design of the room was interesting, a separate room from the main area, but the remote was missing from the tv and there was a hole in my ceiling covered with a thin piece of what seemed to be plastic or wood or something. The bathroom contained multiple beetles running on the ground with a roach crawling up the wall. My socks would get dirty from walking from the sink to my bed. Overall, I would not stay here again and all I hope is that they learn to clean the crevices, at least once.

This property is cheap but the condition is very poor. I have seen cockroaches. I took off shoes in the unit and walked around briefly. My socks were black. The bathroom is cracked. The expectation of the property seems, you get what you pay for.

Please read and see this omg !!!!!!!!

This place knew we had a hotel stay weeks ahead of time and noticed, and when we got there, I guess they didn’t have any rooms and they were aware of that and put us in a Brokedown hotel room full of cockroaches, insects, cobwebs stuff dripping from the ceiling, loud air conditioning and a drippy faucet all night they would not even refund us at all. The manager never even contacted us. I had to file a court claim in small claims court, and it doesn’t cost that much to do it if anybody has experienced this situation it is awful and I do not wish this upon anyone. Please do not stay here just because of the price and do not let the hotel pictures pull you because they’re full of deceit and dishonesty
This look like a nasty dried up worm
These are cobwebs that are all over the room
This is what is dripping through the ceiling
Bugs on the walls

The best and sole good part was being across from Knot Berry. The drive to the beach wasn’t bad. The long time residents made the over nights noisy.

Bed bugs c

We told them our room had bugs in it and cobwebs, and our room was very dirty. There wasn’t even any hand towels, barely any soap. We had to hear a loud noisy air conditioner, and the faucet dripped all night. We got no rest. The hotel was aware of this the night we got here and did nothing because there was no room. This room is not up to health code regulations and they refuse to give us a discount or our money back for the night that we just stayed and had to suffer I don’t think this should be on hotels.com at all. I would never recommend it if I could give it zero stars I would
