This Motel is now filed under "My Secret" I was in town for a couple of days and did not want to throw a bunch of money on a "Chain" hotel, considered an area Motel 6 but found Don' Turf Motel. I really did not know what to expect but the price was right and I really just wanted to... More

I've now stayed at the Turf twice. For around fifty bucks, you get a clean bed, hot shower, pool access and free parking, TV and some rooms have microwaves and/or fridges. Just ask! My partner left his phone in the room when we left town--and a week later, we phoned the front desk and they saved his phone for us.... More

This motel is cleaner than any motel I have ever seen. The pool is sparkling clean and the gardens are well kept. I would rather stay hear than any other hotel down the street. I will recommend this place to everyone and will tell people about this place. I had to stay at this motel because my apartment was not... More

This is a clean, well lighted place with comfy beds near a family reunion! We'll be back. The staff and service is fantastic & the clientele quiet. There is even a hummingbird garden near the pool.

I spent one night in this motel because I needed to stay close to my daughter's home for one night and she didn't have accommodations for me. The motel was built in the 50's and the rooms are very clean and well maintained. All of the rooms are situated around a courtyard that includes a swimming pool and nice grassy... More

I stayed at Don's Turf Motel after a plumbing problem had occurred. The girl at the front desk greeted me and instantly made me feel good about staying there. She didn't mind showing me the rooms before I paid. For what people have heard they DON'T charge by the hour. I asked haha. The pool is extremely clean It's nice... More

I live local. Needed to leave my house due to a construction emergency. Googled hotels in my area. Would have never thought of staying here except for the positive comments. I have lived in the area all my life and yes...have made snide remarks about them charging "by the hour". No, it's not the Hilton, or the Marriot's across the... More

I was a little nervous stopping by this hotel to even find out their rates. The outside looks sketchy at first. But the inside is super clean with wonderful landscaping. Ask for a room on the first floor because you get a sliding glass door to the pool and yard which we had all to ourselves. Definitley worth a look!

I have lived in Los Alamitos and the surrounding area all my life and due to a plumbing emergency at my house I needed up staying here with my husband one night. We made jokes whenever we drove by that place because it looks so 70s and crummy. If we hadn't been desperate we wouldn't have ever gone there. Once... More

If one is looking for great value, clean and friendly service, this is it. This is a " old school " and " retro " place.
