Always enjoy staying here, nice lobby with coffee/drinks quiet room and love the beds here. Tried the cafe upstairs for an easy dinner of hamburgers and they were quite good. Parking is a bit tight for a full size truck but doable and not uncommon in the SB area.

The young man Mario who checked us in recommended a great spot for a cafe de olla at Reynaldo’s which was fantastic! He was very nice and we wished him the best on his endeavors as a civil engineer. The property’s bed was so comfortable (we travel quite a bit) that I woke up realizing we had slept in and it sad GREAT! It was clean and even though it was near the 101 fwy, it was quite quiet. The parking was really easy and we didn’t have to pay for parking either which was nice! I would stay here any day of the week again!

Its a pleasant stay. Just wish they would of had breakfast like all other Best Westerns I have stayed in. They had breakfast but was not included. Staff is excellent from check in to check out. I was even allowed to use the business center after check out, awesome. My room was clean but it had a certain smell not sure sort of like damp or something, not too serious but a better fresh smell is always nice. Room price was on point. Overall I would definitely come back.
