The rooms are clean there are stores and restaurants in walking distance! The best Chinese food in the SGV and perhaps in LA, Yang Chow is right down the street and the street E Colorado Blvd Route
The staff did excellent job at El Rancho Motel! I would add Wi-Fi or Internet service if possible.

I have pictures but there were either stains or some kind or paint splatters all over the bed covering, the bathroom outlets were not GF, no lid on the toilet, and there were posted rules that gave me the feeling this was a place that at some time was used as an hourly rental, if you know what I mean. Very strange. I've never seen that before. The microwave was in a cage mounted to the exterior wall of the building all the way at the end of the building, about 4 units away. Never saw that before either. The people that work there were very nice and very responsive, except they don't have washcloths for the shower (again, never heard of that before but both house keeping and the office told me they don't have any). I left after one night, was kinda grossed out by the stains so I slept on top of the bed cover in my clothes, and found a place a few miles away that suited my needs. This place did not.
As soon as I entered the room, I noticed the cigarette smoke smell right away. The comforter on bed has cigarette burn, the room was terrible. I asked the staff if I can change room, he was nice enough to accommodate my request, but he gave me a smaller room that has no table to eat.
Room smelt like cigarette smoke.
Meth addicts roaming/staying at motel.
Internet connection was too weak to work in room #5.
Burn marks/tagging/graffiti on what few pieces of furniture exist.
I wasn't able to shower as the water wasn't functioning properly and the bath knobs were falling off their fixture.
Terrifying experience, this shouldn't even be an option available through Expedia.

This is a motel after all. It had a string smell of cigarettes. In the room there was only a bed, a small table and a mini fridge. The AC wasn't working at first in my original room. I had to get moved to a second room and that AC wasn't working. It turns out they had blown a fuse or a circuit breaker. All the rooms are not painted well and mismatching paint everywhere. You get two really thin pillows and a blanket,hat's barely that. I had to get my a key card reprogrammed everyday for some reason. There is a mandatory $20 deposit but it is refunded to you when you check out.
