    I booked this room on http://hotels.com for a wedding. It is about 20 mins away from Temecula.

    This is a cheap and clean alternative to the other hotels in the area. It is a motel, but it in no way is dingy or smelly. It is in a very nice area. If I should ever find myself in the Fallbrook area again I will stay here. There was a little bit of a mixup with my reservations (which was my fault, not theirs) and Manny Patel was very accommodating and reasonable.

    Like the first reviewer, we stayed here for a wedding, as a cheaper alternative to the golf resort that was the actual wedding venue. It's nothing fancy, but clean, basic accommodations for a short trip.

    This is a 2-story, 36-room motel. No elevators to the second floor that I could see, so if you don't want to haul your suitcases up the cement stairs, ask for a room on the 1st floor.  They apparently did a renovation in 2009, and it does look nicer than your typical budget hotel - our room had two easy chairs and a coffee table, and the furnishings were tasteful, if basic.

    We checked in very late, around midnight, and had no problems. The room has an ironing board and iron, a (weak) hairdryer, and dresser. No mini-fridge or luggage rack that I saw. The toiletries are no-frills (packets of shampoo and conditioner, not bottles) and the bed had some very sad, very limp, very thin little pillows. Towels were thin and scratchy, your typical motel fare. BUT the A/C kicked ass, which is obviously the most important feature!

    The "continental" breakfast included some individually bagged bear claws and danishes, a couple of cereal dispensers, some fruit, and some granola bars and cracker packets, along with coffee and OJ. We grabbed some snacks for the road because we were getting an early start, but I wouldn't go out of your way to come down for this breakfast.

    Overall, it was just fine and everything that I needed a basic, no-frills motel to be for a weekend trip. I'd stay here again if I ever went to Fallbrook... though I can't imagine why I would.

    STAFF SERVICE:
    So I came here for a wedding.  Checked in late - around midnight - was given a room that reeked of stale cigarettes.  Was too exhausted to ask for a room change.  Went the next morning to ask for a non-smoking room.  Was told that the motel was "completely booked" all the nights that I was going to be there, (funny - only a few cars in the lot).  Unable to cancel without eating the entire cost of the weekend.

    Miraculously, there was a "last minute cancellation" 2 minutes after I walked away.  However, was told that non-smoking room cost more - an extra $10/ night.  Did I want a room upstairs or downstairs? (Apparently, not so booked after all.)

    Other friends had similar issues with "last minute cancellations" that made their room request fillable.

    So... conclusion: hotel staff lied to get more money, and not very good liars at that because of inconsistency.

    ROOM:
    1st room was awful.  No escaping the smell.

    Walls are super thin.  We heard all the noises outside & next door, so if you're a light sleeper, bring earplugs.
    Random times when cleaning staff would work - after the first night, the vacuum went off either upstairs or next door at 6:30 AM!!!

    Towels are thin, small, & scratchy.  
    No conditioner, just shampoo and bar soap.
    There is a small refrigerator & a microwave in the rooms.
    AC was fine; internet was good; didn't really watch TV.

    BREAKFAST:
    Basic continental - cereal, toast, coffee, orange juice.
    There is a nice cafe across the street that serves pretty good breakfast.

    We stayed here one night for a wedding.  The room was clean and well-provisioned with an iron & a blow dryer.  The innkeeper was super friendly and happy to help us in any way he could.  The inn is basic, but I would be happy staying here again if I'm in Fallbrook.

    Stayed here on 7/31/10 .  Check in went smoothly, the girl working the front desk was very friendly and courteous. The room was clean with modern paint colors,crown moulding, granite vanity top,new carpet, nice shower head..and lots of water pressure and the bed was super comfortable. TV is the old style big boxy kind but Im sure they will get around to updating them.   The room itself was pretty dark. The only window is sooo small and its built back into the wall so it doesnt get full sun but I was only here for 1 night so it wasnt that much of an issue, but if I were staying longer I think it would annoy me having to have lights on even during the day.  If I stay here again I will request a room facing the front of the hotel since those rooms had regular size windows and they were not built so far back into the walls.  Toiletries were basic , shampoo, lotion, shower cap, etc..but that's ok, its what I would expect.  Hairdryer and iron in room also.  didnt use the iron, but the hairdryer worked great.  A/C had a remote that allows you to set the temp. and it was easy use.  Kept the room at the perfect temp.    They had free wifi, which turned out to be a good thing since I did wind up needing to log in to my laptop for directions.  Over all I think this hotel was a good choice. Price was a little high though  ($96 for 2 queen beds) considering this is Fallbrook and also the fact that there are no amemities no pool etc.that would justify a higher price.there's a  jacuzzi on the far end of the hotel but it was boarded up and looked like it had been that way for a very long time. There are 2 other hotels very close by...one diagonal from this one that are advertising $49 rooms.  Not sure how clean they are so for my money, I would probably stay here again since I know it is clean and the people are friendly and helpful.
