Perfect Overnight Stay in Walnut Creek

This property was exactly what I needed for a quick overnight in Walnut Creek—much better than the budget hotels nearby and a nice alternative to driving back into the city after a long day. Check-in was smooth, and they even let me check in at 11:00 since rooms were available. The room was spacious, clean, and well-laid out. I especially appreciated the fridge and microwave area right inside the door, with counter space perfect for setting down your belongings. The bed was on the firmer side for me, but still comfortable. The bathroom was a good size and stocked with nice Dove amenities. Parking is convenient, though at an extra cost. The property is very close to the freeway, which makes it easy to get around—though you can hear passing cars in the distance, but wasn't loud. Overall, if you want a budget-friendly stay without compromising on quality, this is a solid choice.

Well, y

The lobby was fresh and clean. The room had 2 working USB ports and 4 broken ones. The room smelled stale. We turned on the air-conditionor which helped but didn't get rid of the smell. They have a homeless problem. I was happy to know the parking was underground. When the alarm sounded for the property next door, I went downstairs and voiced my concern. He told me they only have Chick-fil-A and a gym next door (lie). Then he went on to say they have an all night security. Is that another lie? My car was fine. I won't be back.
