Pleasant - 3.0 out of 5

Szafran, Archdale, visiting Coastal Credit Union Music Park at Walnut Creek Tue, 9 April 2024

It's a fair price for the hotel room; OK parking and it was a clean hotel. I felt safe being there. Soda vending machine takes cards but snack machine does not.

Liked: Comfy bed.
Disliked: Toiletries could have been better; no shower cap; furniture was a little worn. The late shift person was not professional.

Nice remodel, comfy & clean,...

Liked: Staff courteous and helpful with TV issues and air conditioning during remodel. Pool was nice. Beds & pillows were comfy. Remodel was efficient and hardly knew they were working.
Disliked: The breakfast...minimal and low quality. A potatoe, hashbrowns or fried potatoes would be nice. Waited for coffee for over 20 minutes while the two Latino girls goofed around in the back room. We went out to eat after this.Also, all the little plastic bottles of shampoo soap, etc. Could be more Green friendly.

Clean, comfy and remodeled

Liked: The usual lady at the breakfast area and cleaning around the lobby was charming and spoke to us daily. She complemented me on my pink floral dress the day of our son's wedding. The ladies at the desk both day and evening were very helpful and courteous. They helped with my group of rooms keeping it uncomplicated and accomodated for diffdrent arrivals times. They helped with the TV. Another called Javier on how to use the air-conditioning as the wall unit was not yet connected.The pool was clean and refreshing! The ice machine with filtered water on all floors was very convenient and appreciated. Beds and pillows were so comfy!! The bathroom sinks were high, but we got used to that. Used the frig, microwave, coffee maker a d iron.The noise was minimal, and construction for the remodel was efficient and hardly noticeable.We will return for future visits with our family.
Disliked: Breakfast could have changed up more. Please add a potatoe?(hasbrowns or fried potatoes) maybe some salsa for the eggs, change up with omelets every other day. Ran out of coffee the one day we did eat there and waited 20+ minutes for it while the two Latino gals laughed and goofed around wildly in the back room. They also ate the food standing up and walking around in the dinning room. Not professional. The usual lady was awesome!!(read above in liked boxed)Consider using refillable shampoo, conditoner, and bodysoap that hang on the wall and shower instead of all the plastic bottles and soaps. It saves the planet, a cost savings for you and more user-friendly and convenient. I consider it an upgrade!A full-length mirror outside of the bathroom would also be helpful.
