Decent stay. Room was tidy. House keeping and front desk staff were nice/helpful. Though it was missing a microwave and it was advertised that it would have one. A little rundown as well. Also, whoever was staying above me was very very noisy at all hours of the day/night. But a very good location- lots of food places nearby.

It is a university area so the area was safe and fun. It is also right next door to Chevron which made it easy to get some stuff I needed. And there was free coffee.

The room was very clean and the staff was nice. The major pitfall was the traffic noise being close to a freeway and two busy streets. A grab bar in the shower would also be helpful.
