I showed up after midnight and had to ring the bell but The gentleman that came out to help me met me with a smile and told me his price and it was lower then all the other hotels in the area. The Host was very friendly and I was all set to go in less then five minutes. When I opened the door to my room I was pleasantly surprised. A large room with a large bed and a large fridge. The bathroom was very roomy as well. I'd guess that all the rooms were recently updated, new paint, furniture, and appliances. This is one of the nicest rooms I've rented, very impressed and won't hesitate to stay here again. I highly recommend it. Also there is a great restaurant right out front and the food was awesome.

Sacramento to Vacaville sold out; the gentleman at the California Motel who took my call was a prince, and I got the last room, possibly in all of California. The motel is humble and looks like a 1star "no tell motel" from afar; but close up, and in the room itself, it's neat and tidy, clean as home. I slept well on a firm mattress. This place has a certain gravity to it, backed by a middle class neighbor and fronted by open fields. For the reasonable $55 rate, you can't ask for more (well, a coffee maker :)

A clean, pleasant motel at this rate is a rare thing. Nice staff, easy parking. It's not the Ritz, there is a far off banging sound (like fireworks) that went on all night, but the fan easily covered most of the noise and we were too tired to care. And I'm the kind of person who is really bothered by fireworks. If I'd turned on the noise cancelling app on my phone, I wouldn't have heard it at all. I liked the vaulted ceiling in our room and the ceiling fan. It circulated the air well. The heater worked great. The linens we're clean and smelled nice. There was a little fridge and microwave in our room along with a TV, table, two chairs and a dresser. The bed was firm and didn't make a lot of noise or wobble. Pro tip: Laet the shower run a little so the hot water can muster itself. I didn't do this and so my shower was lukewarm while my husband's was warm warm. In short, well worth the rate. Great for a road trip stop. Would visit again.

The best part is we saved a bunch of money with the cute stovetop/sink kitchenette that's provided so we didn't have to eat out!

sketchy comfort. great for misfits paying cash. near a truck stop and apparently hosts monthly residents. fashioned a plug for the bathtub and recovered there in the warmth and peace from a month of camping in the cold of Oregon . it's everything I needed. you could do better, but you couldn't do better cheaper. down to earth owner put me at ease.
