Great place good location very accommodating big rooms n easy to get in/out of
Dondo Stay is a very well maintained property with nice, modern touches. I felt very comfortable and safe at the location. I have already recommended Dondo Stay to others because I was very impressed, especially for the price!
yes, very nice. Though they could clarify it is a room in an apartment, converted to a motel/hotel stay, but communication is seamless which is greatly appreciated!
The imterior design set the perfect tone it felt like a small upscale hostel. So clean, all the ammenities, its in a neighborhood with a Roscoes and in driving distsnce to cvs/ Ralphs etc.
This property is a scam. The full details of what to expect upon arrival and check in are not listed. The room that we selected was dirty. The prior guest left most of their belongings. Very loud, and annoying. Atmosphere very creepy. We did not stay it was to much going on.
almost like a rooming house.
Great stay overall. I just wish it wasn’t so cold in the building. Couldn’t find a thermostat. I know it’s Cali , but the nights I was there.. it was very cool outside. Otherwise I loved it.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Gave me a room that was tidied up, but with dirty sheets- was filled with body hair and clearly used. The support line was quick to respond, but ultimately unhelpful and they never solved the issue nor followed up.
This is a bedroom with private bath; there is a shared kitchen area downstairs. Very clean; comfortable bed. Way too much scent used in cleaning/laundry. When we arrived, the clean towels on the bed were damp and reeked of scent. I requested new towels via phone, but they never came so we found the dryer downstairs and dried them ourselves. The trash in our bathroom had not been emptied from the previous guests, so we did that too. All in all the place is fine but the housekeeping should be improved. If you bring your own teabags, you can make tea.
I enjoyed my stay here and appreciated the cleanliness and decor in the room.
The only downside during my trip was someone accidentally opened the door to my room and not sure if it was another guest but I just made sure to lock my door.
