Reviews of Starlight Inn South El Monte

missingWrote a review on 22 Novquiet roomfriendly staffpest problems
So quiet, I actually got some proper rest! The staff were delightfully friendly, especially a young lady at night who was super helpful. I forgot to mention the hummingbirds—I think they’re planning a concert soon!
However, sharing the space with a few roaches felt more like a wildlife documentary than a getaway. Plus, finding broken furniture was a reminder that this isn't exactly a fancy establishment!

I had a great time using the pool and enjoying a peaceful evening with the microwave access when I needed it most. The hotel had a cozy vibe, perfect for relaxing after a long day. I loved the spacious family room and the comfy beds. One minor hiccup was the limited number of towels, but it didn't really ruin my experience—just a friendly reminder to bring your own! 😊

Great for budget-conscious
The room had really nice blue lights, added a calming vibe, you know. Also, they had complimentary snacks like chips and granola bars, little things make a difference.
It wasn’t cheap but still acceptable for what I got.

We had an awesome group getaway! The hotel was affordable and close to some great spots. We visited the Microsoft Theater and the Rose Bowl Stadium, which made our trip even better. Plus, the room was comfy for all of us. Just a heads up, make sure to check your room for anything unusual before settling in.
One downside was the cleanliness issues. We noticed some dirt in the bathroom area when we first arrived, which was off-putting.

The staff provided exceptional service, making my family feel welcome and comfortable during our stay. The room was clean and well-maintained, a relief after long days exploring. However, the internet connection was inconsistent, making it difficult to stay connected. Additionally, the limited television options left much to be desired, especially after a tiring day. Overall, it’s a solid choice for a short stay but improvements in connectivity would enhance the experience.

I was stoked to dig into some local flavors during my stay! Starlight Inn is right around the corner from some killer taco spots that had me munching away. The staff was super helpful too, ensuring my late-night check-in went smoothly with that cozy lobby vibe.
But let's be real, the noise from the neighbors was a total buzzkill for me and my pregnant wife.

The location had easy access to the main roads, making it convenient for exploring the area. The check-in process was smooth, with staff being quite friendly despite communication barriers.
Stains on the ceilings detracted from the overall experience.
