The front desk person was very personable. Friendly and informative. She seemed to actually care about our stay and wanted it to be an enjoyable and comfortable experience. I did not get her name but I will definitely won't hesitate to book again next time I'm in Walnut Grove area. The only negative thing was such a small toilet for a bigger guy like myself.

We stayed just one night during our trip from Orange County to Walnut Creek for a basketball tournament at Saint Mary’s in Moraga, and everything was excellent. The front desk staff was very kind and welcoming, and the housekeeping team was just as friendly and helpful. Great service all around—I definitely recommend staying here!

This was my first stay here and my first night was pretty bad due to the room I was given and the amount of road noise. Thankfully, they moved me to the other corridor to a much quieter room. I was a bit surprised that you must request to have your room cleaned/refreshed. Overall I was surprised at the cost per night versus the amenities or lack thereof. I also had to pay $15 to park in their garage.

Short weekend stay a few minutes from downtown.

Hotel was older with updates but still showed signs of age. Easy and friendly check-in. Nice overall public space updates. Stayed in a double room. Air conditioning worked well and bed was comfortable. But the room had thin walls/doors that allowed sound transfer to/from hallway. Room smelled musty probably because the carpet was old. Room had basic amenities but the water pressure flow was very high. Should probably upgrade toilet and shower head to make them more waterwise. Free breakfast was basic but free. Parking was easy but not free. Overall stay was expected for the price. Would consider staying here again.
