Bed and pillows were comfortable and shower worked fine, so the most important things were good. However... HVAC made whining noise, so I couldn't use it. Chairs were stained. Soap dispenser leaked a puddle of soap onto the sink. Freezer was completely iced up. No Kleenex, only T.P. Lamp by bed had a dead switch (or burnt out light) and its A/C outlet was too loose to charge anything. Also, there was no one at the front desk in the morning, so there was no "checking out."

I showed up to check in at 1230am and no one was there. I called the hotel to try and check in and no one responded. The service was horrible. I requested a refund after not being able to check in and they declined my refund, what a scam! It’s widely known as the cheapest hotel around so I wasn’t expecting anything special but to not even acknowledge my request for a refund is seriously disappointing. I’m local here and highly suggest staying anywhere else if you can!

Lovely staff

It was very warm and muggy and we needed to open a window, but the screen was missing, only on our room. Bathroom window was stuck closed, due to dirt and bugs in the grooves. There was no hand soap at the bathroom sink so we used the shower soap. There was no way to walk around the bed as the foot of the bed corner was jammed up against the desk. The refrigerator took two hours to get cold. Staff was very nice and friendly and came to look at the refrigerator. She offered to give us a different room in the morning, but later on it started working. The floor was beautiful though!

The pictures combined with the name were misleading, especially after spending the previous 3 nights along the ocean or redwoods. Closest food was across the street, but trying to cross the street on foot was taking your life in your hands due to traffic. The room looked like it was “recently” renovated, but the bathroom was so small I had to stand in the bathtub to shut the door.

Very run down on very busy road which is almost impossible to cross without walking way out of the way to a stoplight. Long walk to restaurants. Congested and poorly planned area. Only one desk chair in room, so no where to lounge in room. Bed was clean and comfortable

Not a good first impression--the lobby, a small scantily furnished room, smelled bad. After i called out for someone to check in, the receptionist was disheveled and not welcoming. But the room (although the bedspread was old looking) had newer floor and bathroom so it was fine in the end.
