It was a nice motel before, but in the years since I’ve stayed there it’s changed tremendously.
It’s roach infested and I think prostitution is going on there from the looks of the people coming and going.
I will never stay there again

Room is up to date, recently remodeled and done well. Spacious room, ample closet space (bar to hang clothes and not a dresser drawer thankfully!) bed is soft, tv w/HBO and premium cable channels.. The best part is the property is well-maintained and CLEAN! The surrounding area isn’t the quietest- certain people might not feel “safe” - but honestly, if you just mind your own business and don’t look for trouble- nobody is going to bother you- this is El Monte, it’s safe to book your room and sleep! Owner is chill and they treat the stray animals with kindness- they are good people. Pest-free!!

This place is a dump! Room 204 had small blood stains on the bed cover and hair in the mini fridge! I took pictures and asked for a different room. Room 205 had a newer bed cover but still hair in the mini fridge, mildew around the tub and stains in the bathtub.
There was a drug addict shouting in the parking lot. A creepy guy kept walking by my room and would stare at me so I had to shut the curtain.
I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy! I did not feel safe, and I felt grossed out my entire stay. Keep shopping around for a better hotel!!!

My stay was disappointing. The bed made noise whenever I sat on it, the bathroom drain was clogged, and the AC was loud. Additionally, the cleanliness of the room was not up to standard.
