Location is great if needing accommodation for CAL State Univ. campus. We did not have a vehicle and used Uber when needed. Food options nearby are fast-food, so used Door Dash. Hotel breakfast options were good; but, they need a new toaster that's rated for commercial use - bread never toasted, just heated it. Room was updated and clean. Nice pool/spa but didn't use it.

Disappointed

I was disappointed because I booked this hotel specifically for the pool/hot tub and feee breakfast combo as my 3 kids and I were breaking up a long trip from SoCal to Central Oregon. The pool was cloudy and cold and the hot tub was luke warm. This was something the kids had been looking forward to and it was a big disappointment. I was also underwhelmed with the breakfast choices, but that wasn’t as big a deal as the pool/hot tub. When I spoke to the front desk lady about the hot tub she was very dismissive. I’m not as forceful as my husband (he wasn’t with us), but you shouldn’t need to be forceful to have your concerns addressed - especially in the hospitality industry.
