Microtel Inn and Suites Morgan Hill

I recently spent five nights at this hotel. It was four night too many. Although the beds were comfortable the remainder of the motel were marginal at best. The «continental breakfast» was a joke. The dining area consisted of two tables. The coffee was filled with coffee grounds and the staff was mediocre at best. They were not friendly or engaging. Although they were nice enough to call the police when a man was passed out in the parking lot. Then again, they didn’t call the police for the other two fights that occurred in the motel.
The Hampton Suits is nearby and well worth the extra cash.

Total thumbs down! Would not recommend this hotel nor be rebooking here ever again. Double queen room was small, no fridge, no counter in bathroom, vending machines only took quarters because it was broken, the heater did not work so the room was freezing and we had to pay upfront no cash, $ 140 for one night is a joke. Disappointed!

Okay folks, this is a prime example when you need to see for yourself. The previous reviews were not good. I on the other hand, saw the hotel as exactly what I needed for the right price and location.
Sure it is not the Sheraton or the Ritz, but it does provide nice beds with clean white sheets, new room décor and furnishings. As the hotel is on the older side, the hallways are their next step in their make-​over. Heck, I much prefer nicer carpets and finishing in the bedrooms then in the hall.
The front staff is welcoming and eclectic. They are not the button down shirt with a jacket personal, more local down home feel.
We stayed in the hotel for the All West Lacrosse Tournament this past July. We normally stay at the hotel down the street that was completely re-​done, but this year I needed to think out of the box for cost savings.
Since most of our days were spent at the fields across the street, literally, I didn’t need the fancy gas fireplaces, pool or high end light figures. I needed a clean, comfortable room that provided a clean bed/​pillows, sanitary looking bathroom, and a TV to unwind too. I brought my two kids with us and they loved the place. I never had the ‘oh honey don’t touch that,’ or ‘put your shoes on when you are walking on the carpet.’

True that not all the rooms have gotten complete make-​overs just yet, but even those weren’t half bad. Simply pull off the olé hotel bed spread and you are good to go. Granted I do that even in the nicest of hotels.
Bottom line is, its affordable, clean, comfortable and perfect for a weekend sporting event. Will I stay here again next year… ABSOLUTELY. And so will the other 4 families that came with us that weekend and stayed at the MIcrotel Inn.

We’ve been to different hotels and this is the worst hotel we’ve stayed. Aside from poor customer service, they have the least choices of breakfast items (toast, cereal, muffin and coffee) considering it a 3 star hotel, nothing compared to Best western and Its likes. We stayed there Aug 22, 2014 the guy who checked us in named Hamilton was nice and helpful but the staff the folllowing day when we checked out were rude and lacking manners. I requested for a late check out bec we had to attend a wedding in the morning but I was only given upto 1pm bec they woild need the room at that time, my only mistake was I forgot to tell my uncle who was left in the hotel to take care of some business. My uncle was in the shower when Maria (one of the receptionist) called and when he didnt answer of course, she banged on the door (literally), my uncle had no choice but to step out from the shower to answer who it was, and that lady said «you have to leave the room in 5 mins», my uncle said he will and he didn’t know that he had to leave at exactly 1pm. After gathering all of our stuff to check out, he again talked to the manager named Abel Perez and the receptionist and said that he doesn’t have any problem paying for the extra hours that he stayed but to be treated that way was unacceptable. We are still customers, Paying customers and should be treated the way how they want to be treated. Maria also added that it is her last day anyway! The manager was unapologetic as well for whatever attitude his staff showed to their customers. I hope the other microtel staff don’t possess these kind of uncaring, ill mannered, unrespectfull attitude. Im a wyndham member and this is the worst experience ever! So please think twice or hundred times before staying in this hotel!

Very bad service, not good breakfast at all. Not worth it to stay even overnight. Very poor customer service, very bad dealings with customers. treat customers like animals… no rating is what they deserve… when the receptionist was confronted on how she treated the customer Maria (name) stated «This is my last day anyway.»

First of all, Expedia gave false advertising, listing this hotel as 16.7 miles from Santa Cruz, which was why I booked it. It was actually over 40 miles away! Second, as a Wyndham timeshare owner I had expected the place to at least be clean and in good repair. Of course I expected it to be small and nothing like our usual stays in our timeshares, but this was ridiculous! There were broken and missing drawers in the room (#124), someone’s old dirty socks, used a-​tip, and vitamins under the bed, and water all over the bathroom floor. I think the only thing I was pleased with was the fact that they gave three pillows per bed as opposed to most hotels only giving two. I definitely do not recommend this place until they clean up their act. It’s a disgrace to the Wyndham name!

Not impressed at all, cash up front, u can’t pay at the end like most places. 1 – 10
Big zero!

I absolutely 100% loved everything about my stay here. The service was so amazing and all of the staff was so incredibly nice. They have me such an amazing deal. I stayed in a suite and holy cow was it nice. The front desk associate, Chris, was so helpful and so friendly. I highly recommend this hotel.

Booked this hotel through the online European agent Amoma, so we were not expecting much more than a tiny room with two beds. We were pleasantly surprised with the decent sized room, mini-​fridge and onsite laundry facilities. The location to the athletic fields was key for our choosing this property. Awesome aquatic center across the street, plenty of local eateries and a Trader Joes near by. Traveling with 3 boys, we appreciated the mini-​fridge and were able to stock snacks for our 3-​day stay. Staff was super friendly, and other guests seemed tolerant of the lacrosse kids taking over the hotel. Room was clean, beds comfortable and overall a great value! This is a great option if you want to stay in Morgan Hill.

Pretty decent hotel. The front desk was nice, I believe Abel and another man were working when we checked in and then an older gentleman when we checked out. We ended up upgrading to a suite which was a decent room. It could easily sleep five people (two on the bed, two on the pull out couch and one on the odd window seat) When I read the reviews before I was confused about the TV being in an odd spot but if you are laying in bed, the TV is at a good angle. The WIFI was strong and I liked the kitchenette. Water pressure was Ok
The only reason I only gave it four stars was because the floor between the bed and the window and along the foot of the bed was wet. Not just damp but squishy wet. When we got to the room, it was propped open and they had a blower drying the corner in that area. We were offered no real explanation about it. By the time we noticed just how wet the floor really was, we had already settled in and were too tired to go complain. We ended up just laying towels down in the area and trying not to step in that area because Hubby had already soaked one pair of his socks when he didn’t realize where he was stepping.

Been staying here many times over the years and sadly to say this place is slowly being run down!

I have stayed here for several nights. There was one time where I stayed the whole weekend. I guess my room cleaner got used to seeing the «Do Not Disturb» sign on my door, because they didn’t clean my room even when I removed it.
The continental breakfast offering is pretty meager, but there are quality cereals and muffins to enjoy. The staff are usually quite helpful and kind, even allowing me to check-​in way before 3 PM.
The rooms are on the small size and lack microwaves. The WiFi is surprisingly strong. This Microtel is in the middle of nowhere in Morgan Hill — a Safeway is just across the bridge for convenience!
Solid stay at this hotel, B+.

Stayed at the Microtel Inn in Morgan Hill, for 10 days while attending job fairs in San Jose and visiting friends in Morgan Hill. Got a queen size suite for $ 10 more then standard room. Suite included a queen size bed, couch with pull out bed, kitchenette with sink, cabinets, microwave and frig. The room even has a cushioned window seat.
The entire staff was really great and very friendly, especially Neil the evening front desk and Marie the morning front desk.
* Rooms are very clean, cleaned daily.
* Queen size bed is firm and very comfortable
* Room is good size with great multiple motion sensor lights that turn on with a switch and turn off over time when not moving around.
* Good size flat screen TV, with basic channels plus SyFi, Fox, FX, AMC, Comedy Central, a few others and of course HBO.
* Free high speed wifi in the rooms, was able to watch my netflix on ipad2
Made staying for a week and a half, like staying in your own Apartment. Really great.
Only 2 cons to all the pros
Con #1: I had to attend the trip an additional 6 days and the roommates change week to week. Went from 79/​night with tax to 93 a night, that’s an extra hundred more then week before.
Con #2: only the suite rooms have refrigerators. So if you stay here a long period and want to frig, suite is only option
All in all will stay here again, especially if I am living in San Francisco or San Jose and want to come visit my friends for a weekend.

Great place to stay in my opinion. Upgraded to the big room with the couch because the cheaper room was way too small. Comfortable bed. Wide mirror above it. New rugs and free wifi.

For the price, this hotel was great. We paid the extra $ 10 for a queen suit, which comes with a little kitchenette and «living room area.» Fully functional coffee maker, mini fridge, microwave, & tiny sink. There’s a sofa couch that is pretty much unusable as couch as it dips deeply in the middle, but serves just fine as a mediocre bed. Bathroom is clean and queen bed was comfortable (despite the sheets being thread bare in places). Lots of space for funtivities. And actually, I sorta dig the somewhat pervy tinted mirror behind the headboard. (Though the lighting is awful, so if you’re looking for a romantic getaway, beware, there’s a very «office space» atmosphere that isn’t flattering). Breakfast is not much more than coffee and low quality bagels – but again, for the price, great that there is breakfast and decent coffee. Free wifi and cable, great. Conveniently close to freeway entrance.

Paid $ 86 after tax. Labor Day weekend! It was well worth it for what we paid. Didn’t want to pay $ 100+ for the place next door. Everything you see in the pic is what you’re going to get. If you’re short on $ then this is the place

Bleh. That’s how I feel about this place. I THOUGHT that being affiliated with Wyndham it would be of «decent» quality. But it is definitely your run of the mill cheep hotel. Front desk people were ok and housekeeping ladies were ok. Proximity to the soccer fields great. Cleanliness was SUBAVERAGE. Seriously, walls appear to never have been wiped down. Why are their various colored stains near the bed (wait, I don’t want to know)? Cushions to the chair and near the window were stained. Carpet looks decent but I wasn’t going to risk it so we always wore flip flops. Décor was in serious need of updating. The beds were «ok» but very worn out feeling. So pros were: the air conditioning worked, water pressure was strong, there were plenty of outlets, and wi-​if was free. Overall, if you are a germaphobe Beware! If you are used to MOTELS then welcome home.

Stayed here July 6^th and checked out the next day. When my boyfriend and I checked in they said they overbooked so we they gave us a free upgrade to a suite. I wasn’t expecting much but it was actually pretty great. The bed was comfy and there was a lot of space. Queen bed with a pull out sofa bed and a sink, table, microwave, and fridge. The TV was an old tv but it worked so whatever. You can hear the doors shutting and people out on the hallway but nothing that disturbed our sleep. I would stay here again.

Part I of Sidney’s First Three weeks in Morgan Hill
My first ten business days during my adventure up here in Morgan Hill was spent here at the Microtel. Or, as it really should be called, the No-​Tell Motel. Because during those ten nights spent here, I heard some anonymous knocking boots at least five times during that stay in one of the rooms on either side of me. Unfortunately for the women involved, at least 4 of those sessions were pretty short. Let’s just say for the women, I have a feeling the plane never really landed… in fact it may never have even taken off before the end, um, came ;) At least the fifth session seemed like someone actually knew what they were doing. Bravo fifth Lothario dude, you made us all proud ;)
As for the motel itself, definitely get the suite. I’ve heard the non-​suites are quite small. The beds are very soft but I adjusted. Obviously the insulation in the walls is non-existent…you can also hear 101 Freeway quite loud…
Breakfast shouldn’t even be offered… the pickings are pretty slim and no fruit too. Service was good, employees seemed nice the few times I needed new keys. Rates are excellent at $ 60.00+ a night. Free wi-​fi was consistent.
For one night, this motel would do the trick… I stayed far too long. The Comfort Inn next door is better for longer stays. Here is the end of review # 550 :)

Although small and older, this place is nice and clean. Perfect for a night stay when on a budget. A single queen room was only $ 62.99 plus taxes. Free WiFi.
Shout out to Ash! He was awesome on checking me in and out. Very friendly and easy personality.
Since I was going to miss breakfast for a race I was doing, I asked if I can at least have something to go. This was at 5 am. There was no fuss about it. The lady went to their pantry room and she was nice enough to give me and my friend a banana, bagel with cream cheese and muffin.
I also requested for a late check out. I was initially told it will cost me an additional $ 10 but they later on waived it for me. Sweet!
