Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
We were on a road trip and wanted to stay safe so we booked this motel based on its reviews and really cheap price. It’s so exceeded our expectations. While it is definitely dated, it’s dated in a good way like waking up in the 60s. We were so charmed that we ended up having happy hour and dinner (delivered pizza from Pizza Planet - highly recommended) by the pool because all the restaurants in town were packed and not really practicing enough social distancing or mask wearing to keep us comfortable. We had just come from staying at a lovely B&B in the wine country but this place was just fine for us and very quiet, even though there were people in the rooms next to us, we didn’t hear them. This is not a place that was decorated to be retro, this is a place that is really from the ‘60s. Our room had a very comfortable king size bed and new carpet and everything was very clean and it was pretty roomy for a motel room with a table and two chairs and a desk. I would definitely stay here again and for the price, it’s an amazing deal.

Family-owned and operated Classic motel from 1960, very close to the center of Paso Robles. Perfect location for exploring all the vineyards in the area, or to just stroll across the park to check out all the bars restaurants, and tasting rooms downtown. Basic room and shower but clean and secure, have TV, refrigerator and coffee maker. All rooms face the outdoor pool (open seasonally) and cars park right in front of the room door. No real place to gather outside, but the Rodeo bar is just up the street.
TIP: This is the perfect place, if you are just looking for something cheap and cheerful. If this review was informative, please check the box below as I am trying to set a record for helpful reviews. Thank you

We enjoyed our one evening stay at the quaint Melody Ranch Motel during a rainy visit to the downtown Paso Robles tasting rooms. We chose the Melody Ranch based on location as we wanted to be within walking distance to the tasting rooms. We arrived a little before check in and were pleased that we had an end room (21) and friends traveling with us next door in (20). The room was comfortable and well equipped with a fridge, TV, and sitting area. They even lent us their umbrellas at the front desk as we arrived during a downpour. A nice place to stay in a charming town.

We usually stay at La Quinta while visiting Paso Robles but it was booked up and most other hotels booked as well so judging by reviews I booked 2 rooms at Melody. The facility was a typical dated motel and had high rates for a dowdy ambiance. However with everyone starting to travel again I think we were lucky to get rooms. My title says it all. It was reasonably clean but the beds were very uncomfortable. The mattresses need replaced. The pillows need replaced. A plus is that it is close to restaurants.Would only stay here again in a pinch.

The positive reviews drew us to this perfect small motel right in Paso Robles. The room was spotless, crisp cotton sheets, very comfortable bed and most welcoming hosts. Pretty garden around the motel reflects the care that is evident overall. Can't wait to return next year.
It is also very short walking distance to all the galleries, restaurants, wine tasting rooms and shops that Paso Robles features. A great place to visit!

This little motel is better than it looks from the outside. The owner is super nice and friendly, came to greet us in the driveway, answered any questions we had. The rooms are definitely outdated but clean, functional and comfortable. Surprisingly the sheets were much nicer than I expected and it was relatively quiet for its location. I dumped my toes in the pool which was nice and clean. Great little gem for an inexpensive overnight.

We have stayed at many places in Paso Robles. There have been some really nice places and Melody Ranch is one of them. The staff is great and the room is cozy and well lit. The beds are very comfortable. My only concern is that the shower is a little on the small side. The bathroom had many towels. We would like to stay again because we were very comfortable.

Very comfortable bed, good sized warm hot shower, friendly staff, clean room. Nothing fancy but just what you need. Great location two blocks from town square. Many restaurants nearby and close to gas stations. Outdoor pool looks clean and inviting.

This is a drive in, park at your room, swimming pool in the parking lot family owned motel. It's very well maintained, rooms and furniture updated, comfortable bed. It reminds me of places I used to stay at when I was a kid. It is not a "retro is cool" copy of a 50s motor hotel, it is one. Great location, friendly, right downtown.

Basics are in order, e.g. you get a room, a decent bed, etc. Other than that, do not expect privacy as you can hear the TV next door, including the conversations. And the most important factor, which really upset us was the fact that our request for privacy, Do not disturb sign, was ignored. We had a lot of electronics in the room and therefor left the sign on, however we we returned the sign was off and the room had been cleaned. Utter disregard for privacy, unacceptable! No plugs in the room, had to unplug the coffee machine in the bathroom to charge a telephone, and unplug the TV to charge a laptop. No hairdryer, no clock, extremely slow internet or none at all, noisy heating system and rundown, unkept staff. To add to this we decided to try the 'complimentary' coffee in the room ... One sip was already too much!!! Extremely unhappy and would not recommend this to anyone. However the rooms were clean, the beds decent and it is a great location.
