Stopped in here last minute as part of our road trip from LA to San Fran, room was clean and spacious, staff warm and welcoming. Breakfast the next morning was great, big selection of toasts, waffles, fresh fruits etc. the place is kind of in the middle of nowhere but a great overnight stop off! Would recommend

While this motel is definitely not for everyone, we stay here from time to time. It has a quirky country theme to it, with country images painted on some of the furniture in the room and clouds on the ceiling. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The motel has the original club house where they host the continental breakfast. There... More

We have been staying at this place 1-2x per year for the last five years. It is a very affordable motel, with a throwback feel, and the price is definitely right......what is not to like about that!! We had a nice vist with Scott and commented on some recent face lifts that had been done around the place and he... More

The clerk at the desk, I believe she said her name was Valerie.The first impression was slurred speech, unkept, and unprofessional. Door was impossible to close, and carpets dirty. The rooms smelled musty, and the water was yellow. Only 1 star for the scenery.

The Good - The maintenance of the exterior was very good. It is a ranch-theme and I thought they executed that very well. It is located on a hill so you get some good views. You could walk to Bell St., but it is a little scary at night because it is so dark. The room had very good A/C... More

Spent 3 nights here using the hotel as a base for daily long distance bicycle rides in the surrounding mountains and valleys. Checking in the staff was very nice and efficient as were all of the staff I had contact with. I tend to be a person who looks for detail and the following is just my observations. Upon getting...

I have stayed at the Skyview for a week every Spring for five of the last seven years. My most recent travel there was in April 2012. The Skyview is a classic 1950's motor court hotel with two long rows of rooms separated by a common parking area in the middle to the two buildings. The room are reasonably sized... More

Not only did I feel very welcomed when I arrived by a very courteous staff, but I also found the room to be very comfortable, spacious and clean. The area is quiet, yet close to the highway. The Western themed room I stayed in was very authentic and matched the surrounding landscape. The internet is fast and the beds are... More

situated high on a grassy knoll above the quaint little town of Los Alamos, this place is a kick. A kick right into the old west! rustic and charming, the staff is pleasant and unobtrusive. I couldn't hep but imagine that this is where the local winemakers meet their lovers. Plus, being on a hill, you can see anyone who... More
