My biggest complaint is that I reserved a non-smoking room on Expedia but they put us in a smoking room, which I didn't know until I got to the room, smelled the smoke smell, and saw the ash trays. I was then told I could not switch rooms because they are fully booked. They could have switched us to a non smoking room to swap with somebody who hadn't checked in yet except that they didn't have anyone to clean the room we had only walked into for a minute. Very frustrating. They said that by booking through Expedia they don't get any info about it being a non-smoking reservation and that I would have had to call in advance and request that. I honestly didn't even know that motels/hotels in California had smoking rooms anymore. They offered a small discount if we stay, or the option to check out and get a refund but that wasn't an option because everything in the area was fully booked. When I checked out on my last day I asked about the discount they promised and found out I have to haggle with Expedia to get it.
Other than that, the room was a "you get what you pay for" kind of thing. No microwave, no mini-fridge, tiny round shower with a shower curtain that sticks to your body, run down furnishings, etc. In the future, I will pay a bit more to not encounter these problems.
