The kind of place where Lucy and Ricky might have stayed during one of their cross-country adventures, the El Rey was built in 1930s but has been brought gracefully into the 21st century, its rooms handsomely made over. Rooms are individually decorated and might include antique television armoires, beamed ceilings, upholstered wing chairs and sofas; some have kitchenettes. Bathrooms have been handsomely updated with glass brick and tile. Each unit has a small covered front patio with wrought-iron chairs. Towering shade trees loom over the parking lot, and there's a landscaped courtyard with tables and chairs by the pool.
