SDSU.

Enjoyed interaction checking in. Bed was comfortable. Room size was good. Breakfast - could use some protein. Very disappointed that the only creamer for coffee was hazelnut. You have to be able to have regular creamer or carnation powder. It is very dated hotel, but would stay there again.

Not bad. Not great.

The lady at the front desk was great as was the restaurant. But, the rooms were "clean". The hallways were in need of love. The entire place felt... "damp". Not a bad place, but not a great place. The building needs some serious TLC

Our room had mold in the corners by thw ceiling, the toilet rocked when you would sit down and stand up. When taking a shower the water came out of rhe faucet more then the shower head. The walls were dirty and the hallways smelled like Marijuana. The breakfast room was dirty and they were out of waffle mix and coffee and it took 30 mins to fill it after we asked for a refill. The lazy river was ice cold

When we checked into our hotel room it smelled like cigarettes. Was dark and dirty and terribly outdated. I took our 2yr old to the 'waterpark' where we went down the slide and I ended up with a tore up leg/knee from the kids slide. I'm thankful I didn't let her go down it by herself because we probably would've ended up in the ER. We cancelled our rooms for the next night but still had to pay for that current night. Was an expensive half hour visit.
