This was trip number 11 to the area in the last 18 months and we have stayed in a lot of other budget hotels. This one is our new favorite and we have already booked our next stay. Its a budget hotel, so no frills, but there were things that stood out to me over other places. One thing that I do like is that they don't do bedspreads, they instead sandwich a blanket between fresh sheets, so you have a clean surface touching you. There was no mold in the bathroom, as there is in many other hotels in CA, as its a humid place. There was carpet, but it didn't feel/look/smell gross and my feet didn't turn black after 3 steps. In the corners and more hidden places, there wasn't lots of dust and grime, so you can tell they actually do clean pretty well. One thing was annoying but not a huge deal-the curtains are far away from the window, so light leaks in. My only real negative is that the door to the bathroom is a barn door, so no sound barrier and you can see through the gap. Housekeeping took our trash out and brought us fresh towels without asking, which was appreciated! The front desk has towels for the pool, which was clean and quiet when we went there. No hot tub, but that was fine with us. Front desk staff was very kind during check in, check out, and asking for pool towels. OH, there are also bathrooms in the lobby which is nice if you can't wait for your family to finish in the shower or if you need to do something not delicate!
