Great location for attending events at the UC Davis Health Pavilion (we went to see a musical theater production), and there's a good restaurant practically attached to the building, but it really is just a basic, aging motel. Service was practically non-existent (and my companion left a pillow that they were not willing to ship back to her), breakfast offerings were sparse, and the drywall in the bathroom was cracking. The room was clean, however, and the security (gates requiring key card entrance) was somewhat comforting considering the area. Parking was available but tight. Recommended for practicality, but not for a fun "vacation" stay.
