The rooms were not sound proof. The water pressure and temperature were so bad. There were a couple of roaches we found. The bed made so much noise while just moving on it. It was clean so I gave it two stars. And I also needed to stay because I had a big test to take the next day.

Disliked: Staff & service
The staff was rude, when asked for towels I was told they were short on towels and they could not give me any. After asking to speak to a manager the girl gave me the towels but in a very rude way. Also there was no shampoo or conditioner in our room. Breakfast had very limited options and the water and apple juice tasted like water with Chloride.

Location is great if needing accommodation for CAL State Univ. campus. We did not have a vehicle and used Uber when needed. Food options nearby are fast-food, so used Door Dash. Hotel breakfast options were good; but, they need a new toaster that's rated for commercial use - bread never toasted, just heated it. Room was updated and clean. Nice pool/spa but didn't use it.

We checked in after midnight, exhausted of a looooong drive. We were able to find a good parking in front of the hotel. The front desk lady was super nice, friendly, she greeted us and swiftly checked us in. The room was standard 1 King bed. Linens were clean and fresh. Many pillows (some really lumpy and ready to be retired). The mattress 🙈🙈… felt like the middle is higher than the sides, because we were rolling off the bed, all through the night. Light in the room was ok, but cold and not cozy. However, the spotlights were spot on, The furniture is ok, nothing fancy. Closet doors definitely need a new coat of the lacquer. Refrigerator is functional, but the freezer was packed with ice overgrowth. Would’ve been nice to defrost it now and then… Telephones are worthy of 1990s movie set. Bathroom Towels are standard - not good, not bad. Water pressure in the shower - perfect - not too strong, not too weak- just right! The shampoo and conditioner are very nice, no obnoxious smells, in fact, quite contrary - very pleasant, light fragrance. Same with the hand soap. Whoever had chosen it for the hotel, did a great job! Thank you! 🙏 A word about the bathroom lighting - it is a perfect lighting for makeup applying before the event! Definitely 10 out of 10. Would I vet stay there again? Definitely! But hopefully with a different mattress. Sleeping on that mattress after a long and hard journey was a torture.

My room was quiet. No restaurants nearby without crossing a freeway. No microwave or safe in the room. No floor towel in the bathroom for standing on when getting out of the shower. I did like that the hvac was fairly quiet.
