California Inn, Barstow

For several months I was a weekend guest, visiting from out of state for work. I noticed I was getting rashes on my arms and neck, This would only occur over the weekend, the rash would clear up when I would go home and re-appear once I would leave the hotel. I went to the Doctor I was directed to write down all my steps of products used and foods I ate during this period. I later relaized it was the hotel. I The chairs were no always clean nor were the blankets. After finding visable siemen stains on the chairs and stains on our bedding we requested clean ones. I am also asmatic I would reserve my room a month in advance always non smoking. I was given a non smoking room, due to they gave my room away, after it had been already reserved. I was alo instructed by the Manager they only clean the blackeys once a months but the sheets daily, the front desk clerk stated no we clean the blankets daily, and the bed spread monthly,when complaining the Manager demaned we leave because we complained to much this caused financial strain due to trying to find another hotel last minute that was not in our budget. Can you believe being kicked out of a hotel becuase you want clean blankets. I am currently researching legal recourse. This was not only unprofessional but caused me medical issues that were temporary but still unwarranted due to there cleanliness. Be aware they do not clean there blankets & chairs on a regular and they dont keep track of smoking and non smoking bedding, they should be kept seperate.

Came across this place randomly while looking for a place to stop between Vegas and Orange Co. I admit that the $49.99 price was what attracted us, and our expectations weren't that high, however we were very pleasantly surprised (and stayed there again week later on our return trip). Our favorite part was the pool area (ground poolside rooms have direct sliding door access to the pool). The pool area was a nice overall setup, and a great way enjoy the 110 F desert heat. Rooms were very large and more than clean enough considering the value. Free WIFI and ethernet along with large desk room was an added bonus. In room fridge, microwave, and coffee also nice. All staff I encountered were friendly and accommodating during our two stays there. Restaurants, and some stores very close by. I'd definitely stay there again.

What a disgusting place. It's dirty along with trying to resolve over charges on my credit card and apparently it is going to be a problem. This motel charged us for two extra nights for two rooms and they are insisting I pay it. We only had one room, stayed one night and left...the other room was used only for showers and were there for only a couple of hours. I don't mind paying for the room that was used for showers but they are trying to double charge me! KC

THe room had an overpowering stink of some cheap insecticide. Had to sleep with the sliding glass balconey door wide open. There are some nice Comfort Inns out there. This is not one of them.

The facilities were about as expected for cleanliness and value and the included breakfast was above average. However, the beds were very hard, even for hotel beds. Also, our non-smoking room was very smokey. If you need non-smoking room ask for one far from the smoking rooms. The desk staff were also quite aloof. Below average overall.

About four years ago, during check in my husband asked if we could have a poolside room so we would have easy access to the pool. The manager then told my husband that he needed to go to the gym before he could even think about using the pool. After we were offended and asked for the number to the corporate office to make a complaint, the manager said she was just joking. I wouldnt recommend this hotel to anyone. My husband was verbaly abused by the manager and the whole incident was made into a "joke". This hotel is a JOKE!!!

Easy and fast check-in and out. Good breakfast. Clean and comfortable room. We had no problem at all.
