We were on the second floor and the noise from the people above walking was incredibly loud. Upon check in our room was open, we checked the room for safety
My husband and I stayed her with our 4 teens for one night. The room was a little smaller than I was thinking, but we had enough room. It was very quiet, super clean and didn't smell bad like some hotels can. The beds were comfortable; however the hideaway couch had a super thin mattress which was very uncomfortable. The blanket provided for the hideaway was very scratchy and reminiscent of a hospital blanket. The staff was friendly and polite. There was alot of selections for breakfast and it was fresh. My kids were disappointed that the pool was closed, something we didn't know when we booked.
Our room was very spacious and clean. Nothing to do with the hotel, but did not like the “soft water” in the area that makes you feel like you’re always soaped up. We were on the second floor and the occupants above us had very heavy feet; loud above. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay, nice hotel!
When I walked into my room, it smelled clean. It was not musty or moldy or fragrant just clean. Breakfast was very good. Freshly ground coffee, hot cinnamon rolls, push a button and you get two pancakes. Even the stir sticks are individually packaged. Very good selections with three milk choices. Great
Very helpful staff and cleaning crew! Always ready to help. Clean campus and just a mile from Davis downtown and all the food you want. Same distance to UC Davis. Not too close and not too far either.. perfect! Thanks much to the staff for a wonderful 5 nights!!
