2-Star Hotels in California, United States

"This was my second time staying in the dormitory here! The location is excellent, with both the subway and bus stops within a 5-minute walk. I stayed in a female-only quad room. The room has bunk beds (each with a pillow, blanket, sheets, one light, and an outlet), air conditioning, a window that opens for ventilation (as there was a slight lingering smell), and a personal locker (you need to bring your own lock). There's also a private changing area with a mirror, light, and curtain, so you can change clothes in the room. A trash can is provided. There are several hooks to hang luggage, but no hangers. For the bottom bunk, taller individuals might find it a bit low, so it might be worth requesting an upper bunk. Amenities like towels and hairdryers can be borrowed from the front desk. Breakfast includes two types of bagels, sliced bread, oranges, jam, cream cheese, oatmeal (I think?), coffee, hot water, tea bags, and mineral water. Some people were cooking with ingredients they bought in the kitchen! There were also two large refrigerators where you could store items by writing your name on them. The shower rooms, toilets, and a changing area with mirrors and curtains are all located in one spot but are separated. The shower rooms have shelves outside for luggage, but they're a bit narrow, and there are no hooks or luggage racks inside the individual stalls, which can be a bit inconvenient. Shampoo and body soap are provided. (Many people were changing in the adjacent changing room.) In the mornings, depending on the time, there were often many people doing their makeup, but I didn't have to wait and everyone shared the space well. One issue I had was on just one night when I tried to use the shower, all four stalls only had cold water, with no explanation or sign that they were broken. It was freezing, which was terrible. I recommend testing if the hot water works at the sink before changing when you use the shower room! Also, the hotel entrance is narrow, and there's no elevator, so it's immediately steep stairs. Carrying large suitcases to the rooms can be very challenging. When checking out, you need to remove the pillow and the two sheets you used from your bed and return them to the small window at the front desk. Please also return your card key to the front desk. If you have any other questions, the front desk staff are helpful and should be able to assist you. I hope this information is useful."

"Although the place looks a bit old, it is very clean, and you can tell the host has taken great care of it to provide good facilities for guests to use. The room is actually much larger than it looks in the photos, and everything you need is well prepared. If you have any questions, you can ask the host, who is very friendly and kind. Overall, it was a very satisfying stay experience. Highly recommended. 这里虽然看起来旧可是很干净看得出屋主很用心照顾好让我们有很好的设施可以用。房间实际比图片看起来大得多，该有的都准备好，有疑问可以询问屋主很友善很好的人。很满意的住宿体验，赞。"

"I was very satisfied & pleasantly surprised after reading some of the older comments. It's really sad that some people are so harsh but... I was very satisfied except for the lack of hygiene products. I accidentally forgot mine... Woke up late after a late night at Knott's & unfortunately missed the breakfast & actually can't remember if I was able to get any coffee before I left. My only other issue was when, I initially was making my reservation, I needed to ensure that we were getting an ADA room as paid for & was hoping to get one on the first floor. It's a good thing I did call because the elevator wasn't in service & the first CS agent wasn't able to find a way to even find my reservation. I called back & when I spoke to a different CS agent, there was no problem, we received the first floor ADA room & us Disabled Vets were able to maneuver easily in/about/out of the room. Thank you to all of the staff who went above & beyond to make our stay comfortable!! I'm in the process of booking two more stays here for the Military Tribute Days at Knott's!!"

"Old Chinese people went to see the oil sculpture park and stayed for one night in the nearby town of Barstow. The environment was good, the room facilities were acceptable, the service was good, and the breakfast was particularly simple."

"What you get for what you pay. No complaints. We stayed for a night from our way back to LA. Near to Walmart and shopping centre. Parking available, freeze and microwave was in the room, that was handy. The owner was very kind and nice! Worth a night on the way to Death Valley!"

"Overall a good stay, there was housekeeping everyday, a coffe maker and free parking was a great option. The room was small though, but enough space for one person. The bathroom was clean as well, and the staff were great."

"Very traditional American decoration style, very comfortable to live, there is a paid parking lot, the vehicle is safer, when leaving the store, the medicine is in the hotel refrigerator, the hotel cooperates with the mailing, the mailing list is unsuccessful, and it is returned. The hotel helped to save it for another month. Thank you very much. It will fail if it is not saved."

"Overall generalization, air conditioning sound"
