Room features like no art or mirrors on walls, no bottled water, and a $50 deposit for incidentals were noted. Maintenance issues like a difficult-to-flush toilet, elevator problems, and a sewage leak occurred during some stays, though staff responded by moving guests to better rooms. Overall, the hotel is praised for its perfect downtown location, cleanliness, and friendly staff, making it a good choice for those visiting Davis, despite some outdated features and occasional maintenance issues.

Great little hotel in the heart of Davis. Really loved our room because it felt like a small apartment with a separate living room and bedroom. The bathroom vanity also had amazing lighting. Very comfortable!

It was great stay, and the best part was one of the front desk personnel, Blake. He was very pleasant without being intrusive, had excellent work ethics, and got things done proactively. The best front desk person we have ever met!
