A decent place to sleep...but that's it.

First, I wasn't expecting much given the price of this inn, but it still left a lot to be desired. If you just need a place to sleep with clean sheets and don't want to break the bank, then this is your place. But if you are with family or a couple even, I would not recommend this Inn. There were a lot of things that could be updated (carpet w/stains, curtains w/stains, old vanity in bathroom with what looked like mold at the bottom, old bed, and walls that could be fixed re painted.) I guess you get what you pay for...

Maybe try for a better option. Like motel 6. Staff was nice but charge of $10 extra to check in at 1:30 instead of their check in of 4pm. Room needed lots of fixing. Walk unit heater in closet was super noisy, woke me up at least 8x overnight. Sink leaked but hot water was very fast through faucet. Shower hot which was good. Room is dated, could use painting & a loving touch. Should've paid even less than what we though as budget.

The neighbors were noisy on a Friday night. Played loud music that we could hear in our unit. Much quieter on Saturday night. The units were brand new remodeled with new counters and fixtures and brand new heat pumps for heating and cooling. Very well put together and very comfortable.

Very friendly and accommodating staff. Clean rooms with all the basics. I was surprised not to have a coffee maker in my room, but there was a mini fridge and a microwave. I always travel with instant coffee and a ceramic travel mug so I heated water in the microwave and had coffee in my room anyway. The staff let me leave my car in the lot after checkout so I could visit with my son at cal poly without paying to park there. Very much appreciated!

Good For The Price

It was an ok place to get ready for a show and to sleep later. Weird uncomfortable little pillows, deadbolt did not work or lock. Shower was pretty sketchy so we just didn’t use it. Not bad for a last minute booking but I doubt that we’d stay here again.
