The cost was very reasonable. I was irritated that the website picture shows a continental breakfast but it was not available anymore.

you get what you pay for. Outdated motel seemed to be home for transients. Police sirens awakened me at 5:00. Hot water didn't come to the shower until my shower was almost completed. The coffee didn't come out until sometime after 8:00. The clerk who checked us in was very nice and helpful.
The property smelled very terrible, the area was very unsafe there was a gang in town at this hotel and we were told to be very careful around them after the first hour we left and went back to Oregon they would refund us and the experience was super scary and terrible. The front desk refused to help

The property seems old but is clean. Staffs are friendly. There was some noise from train ? I am not sure but it sounds like train. Only when I arrived, there were a couple of people outside that I felt a bit unsafe. Overall, it is nice. Price is good
My first stay at the American's Best. It's absolutely lovely, everyone from the owner, front desk, housekeeping were very helpful and anything I needed they were right on it. I'll definitely be back! I heard about the "before" hotel.. Stick with what you're doing, it's working!

The staff member Mr gavino was the most pleasant and helpful
We actually decided not to stay at this location, but I wanted to leave a 5-star review because the property manager didn't charge us for 3 rooms we had reserved when he could have per their late cancellation policy.
