Good location, a one mile walk to the university. The room was clean and was partially remodeled. They didn't bother to add any insulation to the walls or floor/ceiling. You can hear every noise from the rooms nextdoor or from the parking lot. The pillows were thin. The showerhead made a high-pitched sound. The breakfast was just packaged breakfast sandwiches and danishes. The parking was tight. We won't stay at this hotel again.

We enjoy staying at this site. Unfortunately, this time around our room door took many tries to open (needs to be fixed).

Great value. The parking lot was under construction so it took away from the overall appearance but that's temporary. Staff was awesome.

Clean and simple and recently remodeled.
Clean and simple. Recently remodeled. Everything you need for a quick trip to see your Cal Poly Student for a weekend. Parking is tight, but adequate. Pool being redone. Maid service didnt happen.

Only thing we need to be fixed would probably be like the entryway. I feel like it's too small but other than that very nice and comfortable

Nice place to stay for the night. Continental breakfast was less than we expected but for the price of the room we can’t complain. Desk manager was very courteous and helpful.
