Best Western Apricot Inn

Stayed for the night during a road trip down to southern CA. Room was fine: clean and comfortable. Was somewhat disappointed that the breakfast room was under renovation and there were just "grab and go" items in a makeshift temporary office space set up outside the hotel. That is also where we had to check in. Lady there was very friendly and helpful, though. The area around has a few fast food places but nothing that great (of course, not the hotel's fault). Sadly, the Apricot Inn Restaurant across the parking lot sits abandoned for a few years now. We had gone there years ago and enjoyed it. This area really could make use of a sit-down family diner! Anyway, it seems like they should have offered a discount for no hot breakfast or place to eat. less

We had been driving for 6 hours and were ready to get off the road, so pulled into the BW Apricot Inn. We were dismayed that it appeared to be closed. The lobby was taped off, a "temporary lobby" was in the parking lot, but it was locked and no one was there. Finally stumbled onto the only employee on the property as we were just about to leave. She gave us a room around back which had a pretty view of the orchard behind the property. It was a non-smoking room, but the "smoking area" was immediately outside our door. Despite the room appearing to have been remodeled recently, a number of flaws were pretty obvious...like the plastic bag left covering the smoke detector, the paneling peeling up on the bottom of the bathroom door, the carpet coming off from around the base of the bed frame. The shower literally screamed when you turned it on, like a high pitched shrieking noise. We placed our cooler cold packs in the fridge and by morning they were melted since the fridge is in a completely enclosed cabinet with a door on the front. Internet was ok once you got on, but getting on was hit or miss as the page you needed to access to sign in only randomly appeared after choosing the BW wi-fi network. The hot and cold water taps at the sink were marked backwards. And no blanket on the bed. Definitely not ready for prime time. Keep driving. less

Real granite - pink with iron flecks - checkin person nice, McDonald’s across driveway. Current checkin is in a modular, until they get their lobby open again - bed was in between firm and squishy, supportive and soft, both, husband was excited to find old twilight zone episode on the tv. Breakfast was grab and go maybe due to remodeling of lobby, but had hot chocolate, yoghurt and graham crackers. Heater in room worked well. Reasonably quiet despite all the activity from I-5 and all the fast food places around it. $81 plus tax for Sunday night- not bad. It worked. 🙂 less

I was beyond impressed with the staff, amenities and cleanliness of this hotel. I'm on the road several nights a week and was very surprised and comfortable at this Best Western. I will schedule my business trips to where I can stay at this hotel again in the future. less

Stopped for the night on my way to see family in AZ. Was super pleased with overall experience. The property butted up against a large field. Dogs loved it and I felt safe while out walking them. Staff was super friendly and professional. Will definitely stay when traveling through the area. less
