Calimesa Inn Motel Motel - Page 1

I would recommend the Calimesa Inn to all my friends. The staff is very nice and quite helpful. The place is advertised as is, don't expect like you are staying at Hilton. It is comparable to a Holiday Inn Express. The property/rooms were very clean, it was affordable, they offer a free continental breakfast, and free wireless interent.

Our stay was awful. First of all, because we brought a pet they told us we had to stay in a smoking room, which smelled so bad that we had to buy two room deodorizers. Also, the motel was dirty, as were the bathroom, the carpeting and the mattresses in the room. After showering, I walked on the carpet and the bottoms of my feet turned black. The mattresses had no pads under the sheets and the plastic coverings were ripped and yellowed. In addition, the toilet seat was damaged and yellowed. To top it all off, the manager was rude and the satisfaction guarantee was laughable. In the future we will avoid this place like the plague.

The biggest plus is that the room was quiet. However: the room phones don't work, the advertised Internet connection doesn't work, my TV remote didn't work....and I had to ask for maid service after 3 days there. It was clean, very basic, and the bathroom was fine (I had to buy a shower cap, shampoo/conditioner and lotion). The "breakfast" was primarily donuts or sugary cereals. For budget travel, it's OK.

The rooms are comparable to a Best Western type hotel. The rates are reasonable. Besides the amenities, I liked the breakfast they offer since it’s free. They had donuts, cereal, and coffee.
