Rodeway Inn & Suites Near The Coliseum & Arena

I was worried the nearby freeway and construction would be noisy, but honestly I couldn't hear anything, and I slept really well. The grounds looked good, and the room had a little coffee maker, microwave, and fridge. Nice, nice, nice. Thanks, Rodeway Inn, for a great stay. The phones were a mess, though, and didn't work right. Hope you don't need to call for help.

The well-lit area helped me feel somewhat more at ease, especially since the surroundings aren't great. They have cereal, coffee, and some other food in the “lobby.” The front desk wasn't helpful, and the rooms were only semi-clean. I didn't feel comfortable sleeping directly on the sheets, so I put my own blanket over them, and I had to do the same with the pillows. Rodeway Inn & Suites is okay at best.

I found an unopened beer in the fridge, so it seemed like nobody had checked the room before I stayed there. The tub was still dirty with grime and debris from what looked like a recently used shower, and it even still had its Home Depot sticker. The pillows had black smudges and stains, and the room smelled musty and sweaty. The property was scattered with building supplies, half-full paint cans, tiles, trash, and cigarette butts pushed into corners, like someone had started cleaning and swept it under cover. Maybe it had just been renovated, or maybe they were being lazy. Another one in the books at a Choice Hotel.

During the wild fires, we had to evacuate the North Bay Area. The big-name hotels were asking $180-$230, while this one was just $96 plus tax. The rooms had all been remodeled, and the place was comfortable and clean. It's conveniently located off 880. I'd definitely stay again.
