The beds were very comfortable and the room was very clean. The only thing we didn't like was the curtains...they did not close and the sun came through bright and early in the morning. The breakfast was very good with lots of good food items available.

I came to work at the State Fair from the USS Battleship in San Pedro, California. The place was about 20 minutes from the airport and less than 15 minutes from the Fair. Place is clean. Lots of parking. Great, hot breakfast choices. I highly recommend this place. I'll be back next year. Thank you!

The beds are very high. I am 5'8" and when I sat on the edge of the bed, my feet were 6-8" off the floor. To further complicate things, the edges of the mattress are very soft so you feel like you are going to slip off the mattress and fall 8" to the floor. The staff was pleasant. The breakfast was good and it was convenient to the freeway.
