Older, but clean and comfy! Nice staff!

I was very happy staying here with my daughter to visit CSUSM. Every employee was so nice and helpful, the facility was very clean and the beds were comfortable. The hotel is noticeably older, but kept very clean. Breakfast is included and offered a variety of hot and cold options. This hotel is also only a short walk from campus, so perfect for families visiting the college!

Very clean! I was afraid to book because of comments I saw about it being old and dirty. In my opinion and personal experience the hotel was great. It was very clean. I saw workers constantly cleaning around. And breakfast was pretty good. Workers were cleaning the tables and refilling constantly. Overall great experience.
