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.

Reigns supreme in every way

Well, I’m returning guest at the Rancho California and and I have to say the experience just gets better and better. This time we went to gamble at Pechanga, which is one freeway exit away but away from traffic and we went to Wine country, which is just up the hill and lastly, we went to old town. Old town has many many shops and many many restaurants and bars and a lot of tourist Souvenir shops. It’s so close to the hotel you can walk there. After going in seeing the sites, it’s nice to come back to a very plush updated hotel room that has absolutely everything. The beds are absolutely comfortable and I’ll tell you these people even clean the air-conditioning so you don’t breathe bad air filters are fresh. I cannot say enough about this Experience. My future in Temecula, California will always have this hotel as my primary stay
