The staff was friendly. They had a hard time understanding me on the phone and accurately answering my questions. The sheets, towels and blankets had stains and crusty spots on them. The pillow cases had holes and stains. There was old sour food in the microwave. The walls had stains running down them.

Was very skeptical of the stay because of the outside appearance, but the room was surprisingly clean and there was no issues with the area. Front desk people were a Lorne difficult to work with when I forgot my room key inside on accident, other than that we had a great stay here and were unbothered.

I have been staying @ the Calico Motel for a few months now. The rooms are always clean. The beds are comfortable. There is excellent management on site, and they are always willing to help when needed. The Motel is in close proximity to Knott's Berry Farm and other attractions.

Please avoid this property if possible. My room was clearly not cleaned before I was set up. Went to the office to let them know and ask for clean sheets. Had to call 30 mins later to ask again. Was told to “come get it” and only gave me one sheet. Woke up with bug bites and found a bed bug. Bathroom had pee in the toilet seat and walls were filthy and very dirty.

Worn out dingy & overpriced
I always choose the lowest price with decent reviews. Our stay was comfortable, bed was nice, outlets and lamps adjacent headboard, nice touch, and quiet, AC worked well, but now the bad. Really run down. Owners are present, but some tlc is LONG overdue. Sink drain blocked, toilet is older than G*d, and despite 5 gallon water wasting flush, barely goes down despite holding handle. Missing electrical outlet cover next to bed. Not a biggy, but a wall plate costs .50, and plunge the sink? Pretty lame. Basically you get what you pay for, but one should easily be able to do better for $97 paid

First welcomed by a musty smell, bugs in the sink with another crawler that disappeared behind the mirror and we could not get to it. Shower wall was crumbling and falling apart to the point that the wall was open. Shower floor appeared dirty but I believe just stained. Toilet had an odd note about unbanding something before use (like in the tank). The bedding was thankfully clean but I would never stay here again. Affordable yes but absolutely falling apart and not worth the ick factor.

Too dirty
This place was a dump. Several cockroaches in the room and there were clumps of long hair on both the bedsheets and the towels. I don't mind the place being old but the filth was disgusting. Also, they require a cash deposit but refuse to give a receipt for it. There's better places around the area for similar prices. Don't waste your money here.

I've been here a week and the reason is because the lady at the front desk has been nice and attentive to my needs. The maids do an okay job. They're very nice but I wish they would use bleach to clean the rooms and when requested bedding change, give us new bedding. Other than that it's quiet, no roaches in my sight, convenient to the donut shop and CVS,and worth the money I paid. I'll probably be back to stay.
