Budget Inn & Suites El Centro

Cheap, clean enough

Walked in late, got a room fast, and the front desk was friendly. The AC worked great and there was a microwave. Road noise and some dated furniture, but for the price it did the job.

Value stay, light flaws

Sheets were fine, hot water strong, plus free parking. A little traffic noise, yet I left satisfied for a quick overnight on a budget.

The neighbor blasted his rap music late at night :/ It felt like it was blasting in my own room. The walls are so thin. But, he turned it down eventually, and I managed to sleep. I wish I could have used a "continuous fan" to cover the noise (it was an option on the heater/air conditioner unit, but it didn't work. The heat/air worked fine, just not the continuous fan). Overall, it had everything I needed and I slept okay. Thanks!

I stayed at this hotel for work several times. The rooms are always clean, the tv works well, and the owner is friendly and helpful. I've tried other hotels around here, but this one is my favorite. I would recommend it!

The price was reasonable and the stay was decent.

The price was reasonable and the stay was decent. The bed was comfortable, and the shower worked well. My room had a refrigerator and microwave, though there was no coffee. The staff were friendly, though it was sometimes hard to find them, seemed like the owner was handling multiple tasks. No breakfast was provided. In the morning, it was just a matter of dropping the key in the slot and leaving.

Affordable place with decent comfort for an overnight stay.

Affordable place with decent comfort for an overnight stay. The bed felt nice, and the shower was satisfying. My room included a fridge and microwave, but no coffee. Staff was kind, though not always easy to locate – seemed like the owner handled several tasks. No breakfast offered, and in the morning, it was simply a "drop the key and leave" setup.

From the beginning, I felt positive about this motel.

From the beginning, I felt positive about this motel. The lobby was decorated nicely, and the lovely scent of incense welcomed me. The front desk team was nice and attentive. My room was quite comfy and tidy, with enough space and a cozy bed, plus a good TV. There was also a closet with a door, along with a mini fridge and microwave. The motel is very near to restaurants and shops. Honestly, the only few downsides were that the shower took a long time to drain and the internet connection was unreliable at moments. Other than that, I had a great stay here.
