This place was not what they advertise in their hotels.com ad the rooms where not newly remodeled as stated parking was horrible we had to park off-site in the alley and our room had a big broken window that we didn't notice until later that night hotels.com really needs to do a onsite inspection of said property because it's not what was advertised even with proof of the broken window they want to say the rooms are remodeled and there was no issue stated onsite when in fact there was

2 star motel
There were roaches in the sink and in the room. The smoke detector was beeping, and the elevator signs were misleading.

All around poor rating
I wish I had better things to say about this hotel but unfortunately we saw several cockroaches in our room, the elevator and the and the hallway. The floor and furniture were dusty. We chose this hotel to be closer to the beach which was the only good thing about the hotel. I do not recommend this hotel.

Disgusting
There were no fridge because I needed it for food that I could only have to eat. There were cockroaches in my room. It smelled like cigarette smoke and dog in the room. It smelled like dog urine in the bathroom. And there was screaming in the early morning down the hall. If you are going to have roaches and smells like cigarettes in your hotel, you shouldn't be charging more than $100 a night

Worst stay but roaches and no toilet flushing & they had construction in the next room .my problem was the roaches & they have the nerve to give out free breakfast with a roach infestation . Im not the type to write a review but I had to on this case . & I didn’t say anything to front which was my fault on behalf.

Adequate...for a big event weekend.
We stay here for a big event...Long Beach Grand Prix, so the price is within our budget. The owner of the hotel is nice, but does a lot of steps to check us in....guessing "old-fashioned". Will stay here again due to the excellent price.

A nice hotel near the beach
The hotel is located a few blocks from the beach. It is adequate at a reasonable price. The room is large and everything worked - shower, sink, bed, heat/cool. The people are nice. The building is a bit worn, but that did not deter from my stay.

Decent people providing us with a decent stay, and the staff accommodated our extra needs. We decided to stay an extra night!
Our bed was quite soft and the pillows had high loft, perhaps something to keep in mind to accommodate for some people.
