Topper is a no-frills motel in Taft CA. I chose this location to rest overnight for my supernloom photoshoot in the Carrizo Plain. Late check-in and check-out were seamless, the room was clean. My only complaints would be 1/ no drinking water in the room; 2/ the blanket was thin and, with this weather, too cold; 3/ the air conditioner was noisy, and 4/ room service vacuum cleaned the next room around 6-7 am which was too early in the morning. Overall, a decent place to rest for the money.

Not great but not the worse either
the hotel is a small little place in a small town. It was clean but nothing above that. the table and chairs to sit on are falling apart and the bed felt like you are sleeping on a piece of plywood. It was the hardest bed I've slept on. Now I do understand its a small town motel but I did expect just a little better.

Only here for a late check in and early departure however it’s clean, quiet and has all that I needed. A little off the main drag, which is where I like to stay. All in all, just what I was looking for and great value for money.

A bit of occasional traffic noise. Other than that, the place was an excellent value and worth a trip off of I5 to get there.

What I liked about Topper motel is that it is family run—not one of those national franchises—and this is what distinguishes it as far as homey feeling, personally invested staff and the feeling of being in a one and only place
