Cockroaches running around, cracks in walls and ceiling and TV service only partially worked. Could not watch ANY local of the NETWORK channels. Owner came in and when I asked for another room he told me to get my stuff and leave. Place is a rat hole.

The place is full of homeless, they broke into a truck and Managemnt doesn’t speak English. They did not supply any support. The staff is very disrespectful, cursing at my children to “shut up” and making racial slurs. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. STAY AWAY FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY

Crown Motel is always our destination stop when we travel to El Centro. The owners always go out of there way to accomodate our needs. The location is central for all the shopping we do. On every stay the rooms are quiet.
