This was my 16 year old granddaughter's favorite hotel! She loved the charm of the room & having her own bedroom. She hated to leave & said if our flight had been cancelled for a couple of days...EL RANCHO INN was where she wanted to stay! I totally agree! Awesome price, too! We all loved it & if we ever get back...El Rancho Inn will be our go to hotel! Just a wonderful hotel! Quaint & so, SO charming!

I had to exchange my room key 6 times, meaning walk from my room to the office and back 6 times and had to move me to a different room and still Had to exchange one key. The door handle on the dresser was broken and sharp. There was so much chlorine in the pool it left a film on the body, the smoke detector battery needed to be replaced during the night so it kept beeping all night and there was a shooting during the night. 5 shots went off around 2:30am.

They had a bottle of cheap white wine to offer., no red wine.The front desk host should not be working in a customer service position. Perhaps she was tired (it was 10:30 when I checked in) or perhaps she hates her job.

For the price, it was fantastic. Everything was so clean. They have a restaurant/cafe. The free breakfast was fantastic and tasted really good. There’s so much food. I think they have a buffet dinner that you can purchase if you want. They have a pool and a small gym, with cardio machines, a few benches, and dumbbells. I definitely recommend!

The staff was rude at check in and the room was not very clean. The carpet was dirty and had stains and some felt sticky. There was also a musky smell in the room. The only saving grace was the bed and pillows were comfortable.
