I had to move rooms because the original room I had smelled like cigarette smoked so badly that it was unbearable. I reserved a non-smoking room and was put into another room which also smelled but not as bad. Once in the shower I realize there was no shampoo or soap so I had to stop and go to the office to get both. I was given two little packets of shampoo and two little pieces of soap. The breakfast is not really breakfast.

The people were extremely nice. But I arrived a little early and they gave me a room which apparently didn’t log it. So at 5 AM there were two people trying to get into my room thank god I had the extra lock in place. Then the shower didn’t work and when I notified them they went in to fix it. So my second morning it still didn’t work.

I find the pictures to be very misleading. The room smelled like cigarettes and Indian food, and the comforters have stains on them. There were no towels in the bathroom, and the room was so tiny. You could barely fit two people in it. Is right next to the road and has almost no shade, so once again amazing work by the photographer. There are no chairs or a simple table in the room.

Worst place I’ve ever stayed.

We stayed her for graduation. One room still had urine marks around the toilet. Black hairs all over the bathroom floor and in the towels. Four person occupancy and was given one bath towel, one hand towel, and one wash cloth. The beds did not have a mattress pad and the sheets were so thin you could feel the mattress material. They didn’t even put the toilet paper rolls on the holder.

Really great front desk staff. The young man who was a Chico state student was great 10/10. Room was not super clean & it was dated....but what can you expect? Definitely a budget hotel. You can walk to campus within 15 minutes, downtown in 5. Great location

Wrist hotel ever

I will never stay in this dump again. The room was not clean, the closet smelled like cigarettes. I used 1 towel and one wash cloth that I got hair color on and they are claiming all towels were ruined and charging me $57.00 for for the damage. It is a horrible neighborhood. The hotel is not worth the money spent. Go stay somewhere else.

This property is located in a sketchy neighborhood. The parking lot is extremely small. The room was extremely dated and in need of multiple repairs. There were cigarette holes in the comforter on the bed. I witnessed a man make multiple drug sales in the parking lot throughout the night. I would not recommend this property.
