For $70 dollars a night it is exactly the no frills older motel one would think however it was extremely clean and the owners were very friendly. All I needed was a place to stay for the night after my friends 50th birthday party and it fit the bill perfectly. I would stay there again for sure.
Very clean room, host was great, accommodating, helped us check in a timely manner at a not so convenient time due to night shift. Nothing short of great service. Thank you
Stayed two months. Old but clean rooms. WiFi works well. And it's a cheap price. Owners are really nice too.
Even though I live locally in the area,they have been very accommodating to my needs. Rooms are very clean,smell nice. Very spacious. And they have a wonderful staff. It's the only hotel I will stay at in the area.
Reviews can be very interesting. I don't know how you can possibly get to 5 stars on the Coach Light Motel. This was my third stay here over the years, though, and although it's showing its age, it's very clean, and it offers great value at $69 in December 2017. I had Room #20 in the small block, and it has a fridge, microwave, a tiny coffee maker, and the free wifi was good.
Best all round motel we've seen in long time ... owned and operated by really nice Chinese family .. They went way over and above to make us happy .. They have a fantastic selection of incredibly well set up rooms . some with very roomy well equipped kitchenettes ..little kitchen table and chairs , double bedrooms desk and chairs ,,the space blows us away ... they are all very clean , and very fairly priced , if your looking to save some money and still stay in a beautifully set up suite this is it ,,,I just will not get any better ,,and no I'm not associated with these folks in anyway . we are up for a few days visiting our 3 sons who work here ..and grand children .we stayed one night at the hillview just up the road ..it was a horrible experience and way more money for a lot less ,,,,this is way better ..best of luck ..and safe driving ...Albert & Yui ....
I was really surprised by the quality and size of the room for the price. I just needed a single room for one night and I think I got a suite. (separate bedroom and kitchen) The room was very clean, well furnished and large. The check in process was seamless and quite easy. There was no human contact other than the phone. I would recommend this motel highly.
Kitchenettes are quite nice but have no oven. Beds in both kitchenette units I experienced were very comfortable. Highway noise is disturbing but did not bother me once I put in some ear plugs. Owner is very accommodating and helpful. I enjoyed staying there off and on over a three week period while working in the area.
