This is one of my all-time favorite hotels and definitely one of the nicest hotel in Santa Clarita.
I accidentally clicked the ADA-room when making my reservation and was shocked at the size (enormous). Very comfortable room and the window faced Magic Mountain. If you're staying here with kids, ask for a room facing the amusement park.
The second time I stayed at this hotel, I was in a standard double room which was significantly smaller, but still very comfortable.
There's a full big breakfast here serving eggs, potatoes, sausage, bacon, breakfast tacos, lots of fruit and a large assortment of muffins, etc. The breakfast room is actually a large event space with tall windows and long tables which includes one of those jumbo sized television sets. Off to the side of the breakfast area is a rolling bar with beer taps so you can turn the place into a bar for a special event.
In the back of the building, there are two fire pits on the patio, tons of outdoor lounging couches with heat lamps, an AstroTurf area for those wooden bean bag tossing games, a swimming pool and a super sized bbq grill.
The hotel was housing a construction crew from the Carolinas & Florida during my stay. The group held a few social gatherings in the evenings, which allowed them to utilize the patio space quite nicely.
Each room has a fridge and microwave. The electrical outlets are also designed to plug in USB cords for charging.
This hotel is not within walking distance of anything other than an assisted living center next door. It was built along the side of Newhall Ranch road where there is nothing but land. Magic Mountain isn't very far from this hotel, but you can't walk it. You'll need a car to stay here. Down the road is a strip mall with a grocery store (Smart and Final), a Dollar Tree and the Walmart Supercenter of Valencia.
I think the security deposit for this hotel was $100.
There are two hotels built within this structure, Hampton Inn and Homewood Suites. The prices at this location vary greatly so there's no standard rate. It appears they price it based on seasonal crowds or occupancy. The lowest I've paid was $99 per night, but I've seen it listed at $160-$180 and every price in between.
There's another Hampton Inn in Santa Clarita near Stevenson Ranch which is very comfortable, but this location is the better one. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. I never wanted to leave because this hotel was so comfortable.
