America’s Best Value Rialto: Roadside motel with heart tubs and a few surprises – but not the good kind.
Location: 425 W Foothill Blvd, Rialto, CA 92376
Cost: ~$200-$300
Our Overall Rating: 2/5
This is a bit of a letdown since I love the unique heart tubs they have, but the rooms themselves were pretty rough. The decor was definitely a huge miss and a bit of a nightmare to look at even. The strange ways they tried to decorate with minimal effort was worse than if they just left things pretty bare. That, and everything was so dirty it felt unsanitary. I often judge these places with price in mind, and this was wildly expensive for what it was. Is the heart tub still fun? Of course. But would I recommend making the extra trip for a better one? Personally, yes.
Cleanliness Rating: 1/5
Not only was everything quite dirty, the mattress was falling apart and had a metal rod sticking out. Seems a bit dangerous. There was also what appeared to be dried blood on some of the sheets and it didn’t even look like it had been washed. If what you’re coming here for is the heart tub, bring cleaner, and keep your expectations for everything else low, and you’ll love it. Lol.
Favorite Room: He showed us 2 heart tub rooms – neither of them were the beautiful photo they advertised online. The one upstairs was in far worse shape so pick the downstairs one if you’re going.
