This was my first stay at a Four Points, as I have always liked staying at Sheraton, I figured this would be a good budget version. I guess I figured wrong. This is a brand new property and it seems to have a few quirks to work out.
The rooms were good size but featured a noisy air conditioner window unit that came on and off about every fifteen minutes, this accompanied by the road construction outside made for a restless night. The bathroom door would not stay closed, but this turned out to a blessing, as the automatic lights would turn on and off while you were in the shower, or tending to other business.
The hotel chain also prides itself on great tasting pie. Apple pie scent is piped in throughout the hotel, and pie placards are placed in the room enticing you to eat pie. There was just one problem. Pie was not even on the room service menu. And there was no pie to be found downstairs either. Speaking of the downstairs restaurant, no where in Central California has a more un-appetizing breakfast buffet. Everything in the warming plates was old, dried out and cold. The selection of cereals was great, but the hotel was out of milk. The made to order eggs even managed to come out cold and dry. Complaints on the food fell on deaf ears, and in fact ordering anything from the server was an experience as it had to be repeated twice in order for her to understand. All this for a low price of $13 per person. My advice, go down the street to Ikea, order the $1.99 bacon and egg breakfast which comes with free coffee, you'll be much happier. We were.
No one in the hotel asked if everything was ok, or seemed to care. This hotel needs to mature a little more before anyone should stay there.
