This hotel was clean and quiet and had a very nice atmosphere. The outside area was quite noisy with traffic as it's right off the I-5, but we couldn't hear it from our room. My little daughter enjoyed the pool and the breakfast was nice. The freshly ground to order coffee in the lobby was a really nice touch.
