The hotel is great. Clean rooms, easy check in, and great location to downtown Davis.
The best part of our personal experience was meeting Bach, one of the front desk staff. He was so helpful, accommodating, and gave us some amazing recommendations around Davis. He also helped us with some complimentary bikes that we rode to downtown and had an amazing time on! The hotel is 5/5, and he is definitely 10/5. Keep us the awesome work!

Nice lobby and pleasant staff. Room was clean. They came daily to resupply and clean if not declined. Just across the freeway from downtown.

Clean, quiet hotel. Only downside is the location if you're wanting to walk downtown; it seems like a short distance away, but the walk across I-80 at night felt treacherous. But a Lyft ride is fast and cheap.
