Colonial Pool and Spa Motel

Worst place ever! Doesn’t even deserve one star. The front desk workers are soooo rude. Constantly speaking in thier own language while giving you dirty looks. The rooms smell so much like cigarettes. There are drug dealers everywhere. People fighting at 3 a.m. Not worth it go somewhere else. Oh and I had to pay extra to go in the pool. Never going back

So many things wrong with this place it needs minus stars! Cash only, and I had to ask for a receipt for my stay. I’m fairly sure they make up the prices based on your appearance. Mattresses in the parking area, very shady characters live on the property, many homeless people hang out on the grounds. Old cigarette in the shower. They never cleaned my room or gave me new towels in 3 days. Noisy, dirty and creepy. On night 2 the police showed up at 1am knocking on a tenant door for 20 minutes straight (why the manager didn’t let them in is a question I did not ask). I would rather sleep in my car than EVER go there again unless it’s to roast some marshmallows if it were burning down.

This place deserves NO stars! They give you attitude, they speak in their own language in front of you in a rude fashion and try to rip you off. They tried to rent me a USED room that they would clean in «15 minutes» (because 15 minutes of cleaning makes me feel comfortable to be in there). Oh and they wanted $ 100. I said no thanks! And drove off, went to motel 6. MUCH cleaner, great customer service and it was $ 85. Go to motel 6 people!!! Don’t waste your time here.

Why do I even have to give any star at all? This place don’t even deserve one star. Terrible terrible location even more terrible room. If my credit card wasn’t already charged I would have left right away. Thank god it was only one night stay.
Please stay away from this trashy motel, not worth it.
The guy who checked me in had no smile on his face at all like he was dreading why I even came. No hello no thank u !
This place should be shut down long time ago ! Such a filthy room, I can’t believe it’s been in business.

OMG! What a filthy and drug infested hotel. After driving 9 hours to see my daughter, who just had emergency heart surgery, and the only hotel that took pets in the area near the hospital, I arrived at the hotel around 3:15 in the morning, I walked into the non-​smoking room and it reeked of marijuana. I promptly returned the keys to the front desk. The gentleman said he had another room and showed it to me which was much cleaner and had no odor. To due exhaustion and fatigue, I reluctantly took the room.
By 6:00 am, I was up and getting in the shower, which was fairly clean. Turned on the water and surprise there was no hot water. I soaped up and get out within 90 seconds, threw my clothes on and checked out.
During check out, I told the 2 gentlemen at the front desk that the hot water did not work and the bathroom sink was backed up. They looked at me with a blank stare and said ok, as if I was not telling them anything new.
Oh, the room came with a continental breakfast but you had to compete for food with what appeared to be the residents of the hotel. Lord knows what kind of critters were lucking in the food.
As I was throwing my b longings I the car, there was a guys standing in the doorway of a room smoking a marijuana joint with his 2 kids standing with him. I recalled the man who checked me in said he did not know what marijuana was and that no one smokes in the rooms. Probably has a medical marijuana card. NOT.
Upon leaving, I checked my dog for fleas and other bugs because he has not stopped scratching. I plan on disinfecting everything that went into the room even my luggage and getting a tetanus shot.
I am handicapped and was told I could not park in the only available handicapped parking space. What the hell.
You would be better off sleeping in your car and getting rousted by law enforcement. Take your money elsewhere.

I decided to get a room here over the phone while I was taking a tour of Long Beach. When I arrived at the location there was at least two hookers directly out front of my room, and a drug dealer or pimp that was working the parking lot. I had my family in tow so I wasn’t overjoyed with the area. When I entered my room I decided to look around and see if the windows were locked and found skin and ants in the tub, and hair all over the white bed sheets. There was also the distinct smell of mold lingering. I didn’t even lay my bags down and told my wife to go to the car, this was not a place where your normal person would allow himself to sleep, let alone his family. When I got to the front office to voice my concerns he held up a sign that said no refunds. This sign I believe was waiting for us, and many others to follow. He then didn’t know much English. I was in the room for a maybe 3 minutes and he could not give me none of my 78 $ back. I dove home that night tired, but bed bug free. I will put my name on this review (Keith Duffield)

This is a known location by Long Beach Police Vice Division for Drug dealers, Prostitutes and local hookers who advertise sex-​in-​exchange-​for-​money on local websites such as
M4M Los Angeles «Casual Encounters.»
There are not enough adjectives to highlight how sketchy, and nasty this motel is from a local perspective. I would never recommend staying at such a place. I’m surprised the California State Health Dept. hasn’t already shut them out-​of-​business.
Do NOT stay at this motel, it is on a busy noisy thoroughfare, always frequented by loitering late into the early morning hours and prostitutes. Check with the local Long Beach Police Department about known complaints to verify.

Over all a miserable MISERABLE experience. As many of you Unilocalers might now I bought a restaurantgot fucked over by the owner. (In terms of having it to code)
My awesome parents flew in for two weeks. My parents flew out to Califnoria to help with my store. My dad does construction. My mom booked this place from the internet which had «REALLY NICE PICTURES!»
MOM that is what Unilocal is for !!! Come on Mom you have a smart phone now you need to get a Unilocal right away!
First red flag my parents step off the airport my mom gets a call on her cell.
«you need to get here right away to check in!»
It felt like a high pressure sales call! Like the Motel had to Pressure them
Any this place was a bloody mess.
Dirty! Beyond Dirty.
No cable boxes to navigate with. You had to go channel to channel with no menu screen like in the 80’s
The people staying here were like you lifted a rock after a nuclear disaster and ou lifted a rock.
Looked like an amalgam or meth-​addicts, Crackheads, and risen Zombies.
The whole scene looked like a scene from «Escape from LA»
On our first and LAST day there my mom saw someone get BIT in a fight.
Thats right the people who frequent this place BITE each other.
And I dont know WHAT kind of STDs are lurking in their «pool»
Oh and they claimed to have WIFI the signal was too weak to pick up anywhere on premises.
The Motel6 across the street had a Super Strong Signal
On and they are SUPER stingy and dont even provide shampoo unless you go to the desk to ask for it.
Dude $ 80 /​Night ?? are you fuckin kidding me SIR!
The Motel 6 across the street is $ 70 and WAY BETTER!
or for $ 99 dollars you can stay at the Hotel Hermosa! 20 minutes away and stay in California in luxury. For only $ 20 more than this cess-​pool.
The ONLY thing I do give them credit for is they made it really easy to cancel and get our money back for unused night.
MOTEL 6 people ! Its right across the street.
And mom for the love of God will you get on Unilocal already!

Let me tell you about this place! If you are looking for a hotel, why in the world are you looking in this part of the city! BAD AREA! Half the tenants at this hotel are either hookers, or druggies! Only reason I gave it two stars! Girlfriend and I had a good night here about twenty seven years ago! WOW. its been that long! Getting old!!! But truly, do not waste your time here, there are other better options!

I had a good time reading the Unilocal reviews while STAYING at this hotel. And during my stay, I had a good laugh about the crazy woman who was escorted out by police. That was at midnight.
Then there was the guy who was being threatened at 3am. EVICTION if he didn’t behave… according to the management/​owner.
And it wasn’t the entire population of drug addicts, homeless, & totally classless people that used the non-​filtered swimming pool who made me want to write a bad review.
No, it was when I went in to the office to request two plastic drinking cups and was told there were no «extras» just «what was provided in my room that lit me off.
Seriously, you can’t spare TWO effing plastic cups??? Do you hand them out to all the vagrants to piss in or something? Gimme a break.
When I explained that I received NO SHEET service, no trash service, no replacement of towels, the RUDE young girl had to go unlock a stupid cupboard to give me two cups.
at $ 60/​night I’d rather take a bus all night.
WORD TO OUT OF TOWNERS: This section of Long Beach is not pretty. You are in the ghetto, which is why the hotels are so cheap.
Also, you need to give your dirty towels to them so they can be replaced. They don’t do anything unless you tell them or complain about it.

WISH I COULD GIVE IT ZERO STARS!!!
RUN AWAY FAST!!! This place is disgusting!!! After paying full price for a 4 day stay (having some home improvement done) I was waiting for my key cards and a drug addict (trust me it was obvious) waltzed into the lobby and asked if he could give them $ 23 because that’s all he had and he really needed a place to crash. I thought they would turn him away, NO THEY GAVE HIM A ROOM!!! They gave him a downstairs room which I was just told there were no more of! This place is beyond freaking ridiculous. People walking around at all hours of the night, pathetic customer service, the maid? Oh forget it, she won’t even take your trash!!! I could go on and on but I will leave you with this, RUN!!! There are nicer hotels just down PCH!!!

A real dive in a real low-​down neighborhood. Nothing open after dark and the carpets in the room are moldy and slimy, the sheets were clean, the bathroom was large with a powerful shower head. the pool was nice with a heart-​shaped hot tub with broken jets. And they had it under surveillance. Cheap 2 nights for $ 80.
