The line for the breakfast was very long. When we got there there was no waffles left and very little food. It’s very bad organize. We didn’t have chance to get to eat breakfast. The smell of the room had bad ordor. Very unhappy. We paid lots of money to stay here.

The room itself was very nice and clean and the bed was very comfortable. However, I stayed on a weekend where there must have been a baseball youth tournament and there were preteens and kids running around everywhere! They took up the entire lobby, dining and bar area, and the kids were running through the halls after 10pm. It was extremely hard to try and sleep. I was on a trip for work and had to be at the airport at 4:30am the next morning.

We stayed here for one night for a CalPoly graduation the following day. Premises was new, clean, welcoming and the room was spacious enough for our family. Being a Residence Inn, we were able hold the flowers, leis, and some fast food in the fridge we picked up on the drive over so it was very convenient. The bathroom had a large shower area and the bed area was clean and comfortable. Being only 8 mins from campus made this a perfect choice! Staff was also very friendly--we drove in at 12:45am the day off (since we were coming from a distance) and there was someone nice and friendly at the front desk to greet us and make our stay inviting. Parking is a challenge (prob because of graduation) since they have tons of EV-only parking and I have a gas car--but they allowed me to park in an EV-only space if needed. I found parking and declined. There is a $15 parking charge which I was not expecting but at this point, I just paid it from my card. No worries. Overall, would stay here again.

The breakfast leaves a lot to be desired. Cold eggs and rolls that are so hard they would be better used as hockey pucks.
