Hippy check in guy was awesome and friendly. The room is what you expect at this price point. It's rough but it was clean and staff seemed eager to assist with anything. Good little place to bail for a night and party in Chico. You can walk everywhere.

We are from out of town, visiting our college daughter. When I booked this hotel, I thought it was probably comparible to a similar value motel--which was completely fine, pretty good even! Boy I was wrong. Our Room was absolutely filthy, the mirrors were smudged with makeup, and spit. The backroom floors had crumbs and dirt and there was old matches that had been lit sticking out of the side of the mirror. The bed was lopsided, and felt like sleeping on a foam pad over a piece of wood. Everything smelled like smoke even though it was a non smoking room, and there were no towels= we had to go downstairs and ask for towels. Awful, would never stay here again. Sketchy people all around, hanging out in the parking lot, and one woman was hanging out on the stair case to our room, so we had to ask her to move everytime to please move her radio, art supplies, and all her things everytime we passed. I'm surprised they don't charge by the hour.

The staff was amazing, helpful and great communication. Both desk people were awesome, they made requests very easy. The rooms could have been cleaner, but the housekeeping staff were wonderful. They definitely made the trip better. It was a very busy weekend in Chico for the family weekend so they were completely booked. Great restaurants and coffee shop in walking distance. Walking to downtown Chico was easy and comfortable.

I had no towels in my room when I got their, ask for them to be there when I came back very late (11 pm) and still no towels. Went to the office and ask for towels, waited a long time and then found him in the laundry room and he was still looking for a proper bath towel, I said just give me something now! Also, no hand soft in the bathroom, a plastic cup to make very bac coffee, not even a proper cup. Very old hotel, I would not recommend it to anyone.

The only thing good I can say about the place was the young man that checked us in. He was extremely friendly and helpful. As for the room, it was dirty. The shower curtain was all dirty and stained. There were no towels. The refrigerator didnt work and there was old food in it. In one of the drawers there was a big dirty stain and used straws. In the closet, the extra blanket was literally just thrown on shelf not folded and there were cigarettes on the floor. The floorl didnt look vaccumed or moped in bathroom. Lastly, the walls were dusty and dirty all along bottom.
