My biggest complaint is that the vendinf machines dont work so you cant get bottled water on site. Our Direct Tv didnt work, but they were able to get us a better room with a working tv. The wallpaper was peeling in places but otherwise rooms were clean. Decent hotel if you just need a cheap place close to the Shoreline Amphitheater.

The interaction with the staff was good, attentive. The breakfast was good, I enjoyed it. The room was quite and bed was comfortable. but the in-room coffeemaker did not work. The shower was very hot and great shower head! The room met all my needs!
