No place like Home (or the University Inn)

Always feels like at home st at the University Inn. Good improvements have been made over the over the last several months management /owners are making sure their customers are comfortable every night, conveniently located close to everything in Chico, reasonably priced

4/10 Fair

Pretty run down for the price. Bathroom floor tile was dirty and could use new shower curtain. Would have stayed elsewhere but all was booked due to graduation weekend. Definitely took advantage by increasing price for a 2 star hotel.

Nightmare

Disgusting old ruin. Cold water in shower. Dirty floors, water leaking on floor from fridge. No coffee , not enough parking and noisy as hell in night! All for 130 bucks! DUMP at best

Judy, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

They made sure everything worked in my room.
Laura, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Never again

Well there is a 100 dollar deposit I was not told about so I was refused the room. But yet still charged for it the manager was ok but be did try a little bit less of a deposit but it still didn't clear if he tried a 85 dollar deposit it would of cleared and I would of had the room for the night. I understand that they needed to charge something for the reservation but for the whole room which I'm sure it was rented after me. I couldn't believe the whole price of the room. So than I had to walk around all night not having enough for another room if I didn't show up than my card would never of been charged anything. how do they get to charge more for the deposit than the room cost. Anyways I will never stay there again that's a promise.

Very quiet and comfortable

Great place to stay if you’re in town, the staff is really nice and friendly; they also try their best to meet all your expectations.
Luis Angel, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

It has clearly had updated that kept costs down. But it was very clean and the bed was good. The lighting and electric plugs were lacking, and the internet didn't work well.
Laura, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice place for the price

The lighting needs work and there are outlets that don’t work. Other than that, the staff was very nice and accommodating.

This place is a dump.
Carlos, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not so sweet, suite!!

Wow! I realize when going to a "college town" during graduation you can expect higher prices and overworked staff. But, when you call a room a "suite" I feel like there's a certain level of expectation that is inferred. Yet, I guess I have pretty high standards. The full size refrigerator in the separate kitchen looked like something they found in the alley behind a frat house. No coffee maker, no clock, no cups, (even in the restroom) no carpet! The floor that was so filthy we had to wash our feet before getting into bed or putting our shoes on. Everything in the room was dated and could use a coat of paint. I'll close with the one positive thing we found; the mattress was comfortable! P.S. The pillows were from 1980.

University Inn had the best interior decor, exterior charm, and cleanliness I’ve seen at an inn! Great deal for a night
