I will be one week in California for training, near Pomona. Could someone advise me a motel/hotel/pension.
I'm looking for something cheap ( My currency is weak) I will spend money for different VW stuff :D
something about 40-50 bucks

Good luck with the 40- 50 dollar hotel. But "Motel 6" or "Super 8" will probably be the cheap places and they are everywhere. If you are looking for VW stuff? You should go up the hill to "Small Car Connection" It is in Hesperia Ca. 92345. Its a vw junk yard and a sight, thats if you like VW`s. You can google it and its not too far from Pomona. Check it out.

Look for a bed and breakfast. If you find a $40 per night motel it will be filled with prostitutes, stained sheets, and drug dealers.

Pomona Swap meet is on the 15th of January...

Only problem is parking is $10 and entry is $8 so it eats up some of your budget before you even get in :x

You may find some other car events that you may want to attend here...
