Don’t stay here for any reasons. I got the room that bites. Filled with mosquitoes and busted fixtures. The shower head sprayed water everywhere. Bugs smashed all over the wall. Chipped tiles and tables. No closet, no towel racks, the mini fridge was over flowing with ice. Graffiti etched in everything and a white suspicious substance was on a wall. 2 chairs from a 1970’s bingo hall. Tissue stuffed in the peep hole. I’m convinced the bed was upside down or it was just compressed cardboard. The tv worked, but the volume kept getting lower. The remote would only change the channel and there was a $20 deposit for that. Opened and exposed wires. Seriously I spent an hour killing mosquitoes when I checked in. Also some creepy dude across from the office always smoking and staring looked like he stayed there. I’ve stayed at dives before but this is a new low. I looked at reviews and just cared that it was clean and it was far from it cause it only looks like they changed the sheets. Just the sheets, cause the pillowcases were dirty. The only thing that was good was the a/c and the outside property was clean. Surprisingly not very noisy, but I did hear gunshots when I got in. The desk help was nice and staff gave me extra towels but still this was a dumpster fire of a place. I won’t be back.

They allow for a later check-in up until 9 PM. When you check in, you are given the room key as well as a remote to the TV . The overall condition of the room was nowhere near equivalent to the photos that were posted. There were no window curtains in my room as dictated in the photo as well as no microwave in my room as dictated in the photo. The smoke detector appeared to have been ripped out of the ceiling, with wires hanging from where it should’ve been. There was a hole in the wall, the toilet was uneven and filthy, the bathroom overall was disgusting. I’m pretty sure the bed had bedbugs, during my stay there I saw three roaches. There were no complementary waters as shown in the info on the site. The neighborhood itself was not in a safe location, I constantly heard arguments outside of my door. There were homeless people and others knocking on my door. The door never fully closed all the way. Honestly, I will never stay here again.

For the price I paid for the room I already wasn't expecting much, but that was somehow too high.
Things were off to a spectacular start from the moment I checked in. The lady at the front desk told me that the room I reserved a month in advance was not available and all they had left were large rooms so I would have to pay an additional $20 cash if I wanted to get one of those rooms *insert several eye rolls here🙄🙄*
Once I got in the room I was greeted with the persistent smell of cigarettes, found there was no fridge or microwave, the bed was insanely uncomfortable, and the tv didn't work until I unconnected and reconnected everything.
However, it wasn't all day. Until about 4am I was soothed by the relaxing sounds of domestic violence/angry drug use as well as the constant coming and going of random people all night.
If my humble review hasn't convinced you to book your next stay here, then I don't know what will. Come for the lackluster accommodations, stay for the exciting and unpredictable behavior of the locals.

Mainly the floors weren't cleaned, possible insect that bite, didn't find signs of active bedbug infestation, issue with key fob scanning is needing to be addressed. Bed and towels were fairly clean. only do this motel if you need to be near the metro line within walking distance otherwise if you aren't used to more harsh side of reality then avoid.

Naturally it's an older motel on long Beach Blvd which historically a street walker strip. It's not like that anymore some of the motels still operate like it is. We checked in the greeting was nice and pleasant, they had no remote for tv..when I asked for one they were out of batteries. The heater or ac did not work and it's pouring rain, and the toilet paper ran out because they never restocked and they didn't leave a replacement roll in the bathroom...do you know that feeling when the last sheet comes off and it's freezing cold with pouring rain, and you can't even change a channel on the TV even if you had that tp to wipe your ass

This hotel is terrible, I had to buy a toilet seat cover because they didn’t even have the decency to change the toilet seat from a previous person etching graffiti into the toilet seat, the bed was hard and creaky the box spring was discolored with like copper stains the place is infested my last night I seen a roach I got bit by a spider or bed bugs sleeping on the bed if I hadn’t just moved to California with no place to stay I would’ve left and just lost out on my money but this place is poorly cleaned I didn’t even use the ac cause there was an odor like vinegar or something coming from it the cover had burn holes from someone smoking I laid on top of the cover and used my own blanket, and everyday I left the room I always had to go to the front desk when I came back cause my keycard would be deactivated this hotel is too over priced to be this run down. Lastly they had the worst wifi, it never stayed connected and the most you could do is check email and surf web.

The bed was almost rock hard and squeaked with every little movement. I found a pill from some previous occupant on the bathroom floor. There was graffiti on the bead spread AND the shower curtain. There was no microwave. The tv had like 8 channels and the WiFi was horribly slow.
