Best Western Willows Inn

So glad I found this place through Priceline! Compared to other nearby hotels, this place is very nice and clean inside. You can tell the furniture and tvs in the rooms are fairly new and modern. When we checked in, the receptionist was friendly and courteous and very professional. Every worker we encountered were well uniformed and nice too. Tv is a huge flat screen with decent channels. There’s microwave and small fridge, hairdryer and iron in the room. Comfy couch with foot rest is also in the room. Room size (we stayed in a room with 1 queen size bed) was cozy and roomy too especially for 2 adults. It’s also near several restuarants (walking distance to a chinese, mexican and diner type restuarants) and gas station. Also it is right off the freeway, so it’s not hard to find. We stayed here because it has the best reviews on Priceline for a cheap hotel and is also really close to the Thunderhill Raceway where we attended a race event. Highly recommend!

This is a great spot to stay when you are in Willows for Thunderhill, when compared to some others. The front desk staff were professional and very pleasant to deal with. They offer a discount to racers that are in town for the track, make sure to ask ahead of time. The rooms were recently remodeled and felt clean. We did have a few complaints which held me up from rating 4 stars. The door didn’t close all the way to seal out the noise. The motel is close to the freeway so the room was noisier than it should have been had the door sealed properly. The refrigerator, although nice to have in the room, was really noisy. I ended up getting up in the middle of the night and turning it off so it wouldn’t keep startling me out of my sleep. And last, but not least, the water pressure was but a trickle. I understand CA is in a drought but at least give us enough pressure to wash off the soap! Be careful upon exiting if you are in your track car, the egress to the street is a nightmare and you could end up very unhappy if you exit straight out. This is evidenced by the enormous amount of gouges in the asphalt as you exit. You’ve been warned! For those that had made it this far into my review, be careful of the CHP if you are travelling from the south up I-​5. They were heavy last weekend so I’m guessing they’ve stepped up enforcement in that area.
