Really nice, updated motel especially for the price. Nice modern decor and a central location in Los Baños. The staff were friendly and helpful. The vending machine wasn’t working and they refunded my money. I would definitely stay again.

My husband has been traveling for work (he's a business owner) all over California, from near Auburn, down to LA, back up to Tracy and Gilroy and a couple other spots I don't remember. I've been booking him in to several hotels over the last week and heard about all kinds of problems, but this motel was on a whole other level. With Expedia, the cost was under $100. He reported to me how great this place is. Clean, open, well-maintained (he says he thinks it's pretty new), and the staff was friendly and helpful. The room was spacious. He really raved about the shower. Double shower heads and big, open area. If we ever need to be in the area again, we will definitely be booking another room here - maybe just taking a weekend away from our usual grind.

Secure parking.Room clean although the bathroom had a funky smell which I'm assuming it's why the window was open which was fine. It's located next to a highway and if you're a light sleeper this may be an issue. Fortunately for us we were so tired this place was clean, beds comfy and the staff super awesome.

Had your basic room stuff; soap, shampoo, towels. Some of the towels had some stains on them. The bed was nice, comfortable, and seemed clean. TV and WiFi were great. I liked that there were dimmer lights on each sides of the bed. You can definitely hear a lot of the traffic outside but I didn’t mind it. It was definitely a good place for the price.
