Vagabond Inn Buttonwillow North I-5
The light above the sink wasn't working, the handle in the shower pulls away from the wall when turning on and off. Needs some repair and updating. Very noisy being close to freeway. Breakfast was one kind of cereal, waffles and coffee. Left went elsewhere for breakfast. Would not stay again
