| - I usually like to look at the brighter side of situations, so that's the only reason I am giving them 2 stars.
As far as the interior & furniture of the hotel, I enjoyed it. Specially the part of having an actual key to our room instead of a card, as majority of hotels have. The metal key gave the place a sense of uniqueness. The actual room though needed some work. Wall paper was peeling from the walls, there's no mini fridge in the room, and there seemed to be some black mold coming through the ceiling of the bathroom, which gave the room a funky smell.
We got an email confirming our reservation, and in the email it said if we had proper documents stating we were from out of state we wouldn't be charged state tax. Being that my husband is military, and is not only stationed in California but that we both are residence there, we asked for the tax exemption upon checking in. The receptionist was stale and rude with little to no personality, said she would ask her manager about it. Called us with in 10 min after checking in and said only visitors there on "business" are tax exempt. We were not eligible however we did receive a military discount, but I think they should advertise the tax exemption details better in their email. The price wasn't half bad for the location. The evening free appetizer with drink wasn't bad either, but the wine was god awful and I believe it's because it was a freshly opened bottle so the wine had no time to breath before it was served to me. On top of the wine being so bitter, there was cork shavings in my glass. I didn't say anything about it though, again, I like to give things the benefit of the doubt.
The morning continental breakfast was really what put the last nail in the coffin for this place. My husband and I went down around 930am (breakfast ends at 10am on weekdays). The hotel had a very nice spread of different foods, including hot plates for eggs, sausage and potatoes. Upon looking at the potatoes and eggs, we noticed that there was barely any left, and the eggs were burned scrapings from the pan. We were the only ones in the room so we figured maybe we just missed the crowd and the server was bringing more food. We asked the young gentleman if they were bringing more eggs, and if not, could they. He walked over to the egg and sausage station, opened the tray cover, looked at the burnt eggs, looked at me and said, "what? These aren't good enough for you???" Needless to say I was astonished that he would even asked that type of question to a guest! But regardless of my state of shock, I walked over to him and the eggs, pointed in the pan at the eggs and said, "these eggs are burnt, or the side scrapings of the eggs that burned in the pan while being cooked, I'm not going to eat that." NOW, I am by far not a snob, and neither is my husband, but regardless, we did pay over $100 for our stay, and if that's supposed to include my breakfast, then I think I should get eggs that at least aren't burnt! We waited for about another 10-15 min, ate a yogurt, had some OJ, and my husband was ready to leave. Even he was done with this hotel and their attitudes, and that to me says a lot coming from him!
Will I revisit this Hotel? Maybe, but only under extreme desperation and with more awareness.
