Well. I like this hotel and been a guest here since 1996. But, I haven't been to the Big A since around 2002. I needed a place that didn't need a major credit card to check in. I stayed just to go to the Angels game. I checked in, paid the cash deposit and showered and went to the game. I came right back because I forgot something. Omw back to the room someone came running and yelling in a mad way, I explained I am a guest and just left something. In the morning I crap and go the paper and there is literally two squares. I called and asked if they could bring me any they said no. I asked if I can check out a couple of minutes late they said no. But I left my Torah accidentally and came back two hours later and they gave it back to me.

It was a nice room, the only thing I didn't agree with was the $75 charge to switch from a king size bed to 2 Queen size beds. They also need to put more than 2 towels and 2 washcloths in the room. They should also provide hand towels. Had to use wash cloth to dry hands after washing. I think they need to put a little shelf in the shower to put your soap, shampoo on. Had to set it on the shower floor. I felt the owners were friendly. I'd stay there again . I'd recommend it to family and friends. Convenient location. All in all a good clean place to stay.

Place has see better days but I’d stay there again

No surprises. Place has definitely seen better days, but it was reasonably comfortable and clean. The mattresses were a little on the hard side (for me), but they were in good shape. The bathroom was clean. The bathroom fan was very loud. The room heater made the place a comfortable temperature but with a consistent rattling noise. Our room had no lamps, just one oddly-colored light in the middle of the ceiling. Plenty of damage to the walls and ceiling, and the floor was pretty dirty. The fridge and microwave worked, and our room had a dining room table against one way — which was odd, but quite convenient for putting our things down.

For the price (at the location), I’d definitely stay there again.

Wouldn’t stay unless it’s your last option.

To sum it up in simple terms, the place is disgusting. The bathroom was dirty and had hair from more than one person left all around the room. The chair/couch had questionable stains for a black light and the bed squeezed like a rusty wheel with the slightest movement.

The housekeeper looked dirty and sat on the stairs for hours smoking outside my room.

The staff is unfriendly and charged me $84 to check in 4 hours early. The nightly rate was $88 😡.

The bedding was thin and I decided to sleep in my clothes to stay warm and protect myself from whatever may be on the sheets. The chairs in my room had stains and holes.

Considering the area, I felt very safe during my stay. The only con I have of my stay was that the room was well kept but it did not feel “clean”. The furniture was dusty, there was a used soap bar in the shower, and the pillows were extremely yellow as if they were stained I brought my own blankets and pillow so I slept on top of those. There was also a distinct smell, like dirty sheets and dust. Other than that the service was excellent.

Stayed here for one night being close to Honda Centre for a hockey game. Check-in was professional & lady at the check-in window arranged for our rooms to be close to each other. Older style motel with free parking. Room was basic & clean. Very spacious with a king bed , timber floors, table & chairs, microwave, fridge & ac. It's not fancy & I found it comfortable & room was reasonably priced. There are dining options nearby. Honda Centre is walkable , about 3 miles. Big A Motel suited our purpose fine.

The staff was nice enough but the pictures of the property are misleading. Looking out the second floor room you can see the dumpster piled high with garbage as well as the surrounding area, the room seemed to be missing furniture and looked a bit empty. Walls were stained as were sheets, so not sure if the linen had been changed. The area itself was decent and there was plenty of stuff within walking distance and a 7-eleven just next door. I wish the shower had hot water but at least it wasn’t freezing cold. Not sure id recommend this place because the bed was uncomfortable and there was no box spring and I did not look at the checkout time which is usually 11am at most places but this place was 1030am.

Room smelled kinda old and weird, and the beds left us a little stiff and sore but you get your moneys worth. And if on a budget, we would stay there again

Okay room

The motel was okay. The first room we had been given we couldn't open because the keys didn't work. I had to go down to the office multiple times to tell the guy that key didn't work. Then he came up with a different key that didn't work either, only his master key worked. He let us into the room and he went down to get a key that worked but we got into the room and the tv didn't work at all. So he changed our room to a down stairs one which the key worked to but the tv only had the news chanel. The remote didn't work to change the channels. Over all the room was okay but we wont be staying there again.

Not a good place for family

The stay was selected out of need, and last minute, ending a long day at a nearby family attraction. Had there been more time I would not have selected this hotel for me and my niece. The room was bare and basic, uncomfortable beds, with thin sheets and pillows. No amenities included. We were awaken several times by the room above ours (running water noice, moving furniture or other, and loud, squeaking mattress)- clearly unquestionable neighbors doing whatever business through the night. It is not a place for family. There is no security, and the costumer service is bare minimum. I will not consider staying here again.

This was a “bare bones” motel with absolutely zero amenities— not even a blanket, paper cups, or a chair to sit in. Not stocked well, not in good repair, located in a sketchy part of town, and just generally uncomfortable. The housekeepers, however, were very kind and friendly. I appreciated their optimism and willingness to haul a HUGE heavy heater up flights of stairs when the heater in the room next to ours (family traveling with us) didn’t work. This motel was a dive but it made it easy to leave in the mornings and at least the workers were nice.

Stay as a last resort!

I needed a quick, simple place to stay for an overnight trip. This was indeed that...the lodging left something to be desired though. The room smelled like Pine Sol (or whatever cleaner they used) for most of my stay. The bathroom was bare bones as well, and didn't feel all that clean. The bed was as hard as a rock, and very squeaky as well, did not get a good night's sleep at all! Overall I would not recommend this location, and I am certain that I could have found a nicer place for the same price.

First off, the room looked NOTHING like the picture on Expedia!
If the picture was a 10, the actual room was a \"ONE\"!
The comforter was atrocious! We had a Black shower curtain. Yikes!!!
Not a second roll of toilet tissue and the one on the tube was almost out! No pictures on the dark colored walls (on the site, the walls were light-colored), no clock, no table lamps! It was no where near worth the $90 we paid for the stay! Not even an ice machine --- REALLY!? As hot as California gets and you can't invest in a stinking ice machine!
The only good thing about the room was the flooring! Nice clean and fake wood. The rest of the room and bath was abysmal!
The housekeeping lady was very helpful and was the only other best thing about our stay!
But unfortunately, we will NEVER be back, and Expedia needs to hold these properties accountable to what they are advertising on their site! Because this was just unacceptable and the photos of what they are presenting was just totally deceiving!
