Rodeway Inn Chico University Area

The booking, payment and check-in were a cinch! That's the only positive thing about this hotel. The room was tiny and filthy. First, we found the shelves in the fridge hadn't been cleaned and had food on them. Upon further investigation, we found a small amount of blood on the outside of the shower, with dirt and dust in the dresser drawers. The most disgusting part was the "bodily fluid" on the mirror that had dripped down and dried. Besides the DNA left behind, the mirror also appeared to have gone uncleaned for quite some time. There were only 2 lumpy pillows and the bed spread, no blanket. We weren't about to sleep under the bed spread for fear it too was possibly covered in bodily fluids. So we kicked on the heater which only blew warm air up into the curtains. The only way to warm up the room was to leave the curtains open leaving us NO privacy. Had we any other option we would have left but unfortunately it was 1am when we got to our room and found how filthy it was. This birthday adventure turned out to be a disaster!

Liked: Booking, payment and check-in.

Decent spacious place with bad...

Liked: Spacious room. Friendly staff. Central location pretty close to restaurants and shops.
Disliked: Wifi is very slow and unstable. If you are planning to work here remotely, I suggest seeking elsewhere.Breakfast is minimal.

Centrally located, minimum road noise...

Liked: Rooms were recently updated, excellent lighting, clean and comfortable
Disliked: The continental breakfast consisted of cold cereal, possibly pancakes and coffee - and after making it, you had to carry it to your room. With cereal in 1 hand, and coffee in the other, this proved to be a challenge. We'd also like to see a grab bar in the shower.

Very good

Liked: It is close to CSUC, and felt safe. The staff were very friendly and helped us with a printout. I would stay there again. Air conditioning worked, the place was very clean, and the pancakes were decent. It is not fancy but met our needs.

Passable

Disliked: When we checked in we were informed that breakfast was at 7 AM. Seven AM came and went and when that was finally available after 9 AM, it was meager. Room also had a really bad chemical smell.

Exceptional

Liked: Clean, quaint and breakfast in the morning. Super affordable, would 100% stay there again
