Clean and quite.

Very affordable at the last minute on a Saturday afternoon ( half the price of every hotel in the area). The room was very clean and quite. The TV had more channels than I have at home😄.

VERY NICE BUT A COUPLE OF GLITCHES

This is our second stay at Rancho California Inn. Everything was very good except two things. Maybe it was my own skin sensitivity or the detergent they use, but the sheets caused me to itch. Sheets smelled good and were clean, so maybe it was me but next time I will bring my own. Another thing is that both rooms we stayed in had small roaches. We mentioned it to the manager and he said they spray all the time, so maybe this was in between sprays. Other than that, we enjoyed the pool and friendliness of other guests and management. Restaurants are close by and the inn is walking distance to Old Town and 15 minutes from Pechanga.

Mostly good experience

The room was clean and everything worked fine. The only complaint I have is the bed felt off because the springs were uneven.
