University Square Hotel

University Square Hotel

Fresno|1.03km from Lyles College of Engineering
My husband and I paid for a night at University Square Hotel, but we left before sundown (something we’ve never done before) because we didn’t feel safe for ourselves, or safe to leave our car in their parking lot. The property itself is an older hotel, built in the 80’s and in need of renovation. That is fine, as we expected not the best condition given the low price. The rooms are large, and it seems like it was probably a perfectly nice place years ago. The biggest problem is the very sketchy tenants who seem (judging from a conversation b/w a tenant and the housekeeping staff) to be living there. We should have worried when we had to sign a waiver stating that no “drugs, including *********, illegal activities, domestic violence or pets” would be allowed. Never seen that before. Also, they required a $100 “room security deposit” in addition to the hotel rental fee. The hallways and elevator smelled strongly of ****. The floors etc were very dirty and the place was generally beaten up. Inside the door of our building was a large hand written sign warning that any residents who propped the self locking door open would be required to leave, along with their guests. Every time we went thru the door we noticed that the corner of the rug was pushed up into the door frame, which prevented the door from closing all the way (and locking). I am sorry if this sounds snobby, but the only other guests we saw looked like they had recently been living on the street. The car next to ours in the parking lot was in such bad shape - it really looked like it should be in a junk yard. We saw a couple of people circling the building on skateboards and checking the door (the one that isn’t supposed to be propped open). Not sure what was up with that but it didn’t give us a good feeling. The air conditioning does not work well, and our room never got below 78 degrees. We asked at the desk about the A/C and they guy said it was because the thermostat was controlled by motion sensor. Not sure what happens when you go to sleep. Does the A/C just turn off? The photos on their website must be a number of years old. If we had known what it was really like we never would have made a reservation. We ended up deciding to just move and pay for a different hotel rather than risk our car in the parking lot and ourselves in the room - didn’t think we would be able to sleep anyway.
Best Western Plus Fresno Inn

Best Western Plus Fresno Inn

Fresno|2.9km from Lyles College of Engineering
No complaints about the hotel itself, pleasant stay in comfortable room, friendly front desk staff. Breakfast itself was o.k., but the breakfast room attendant must have swallowed a bunch of sour pickles! She was very angry and unhelpful, banging doors shut with her feet, slamming stuff noisily. Breakfast is from 7 - 9:30, we had not finished eating at a few minutes before 9:30 and were told she‘d now have to shut the door and dim the lights , I protested and she reluctantly agreed to keep the lights on, forcefully began putting all chairs onto the tables (I was just waiting for her to pick us up and turn us upside down !!) She wore no name tag and refused to state her name - the apologetic front desk said it was Ellie. We left with a sour taste and will not come back to this Best Western Hotel.

Fairfield Inn & Suites Fresno River Park

This hotel has construction, and we were only told upon check-in to expect an 'inconvenience.' The noise beginning early in the morning on Monday, the second night of our stay, was absolutely unbearable, and ruined our morning on the day of preparation for a relatives funeral. Literally sounded like a jackhammer on the wall outside our room. They’re doing stonework. There's dust flying everywhere. There's loose plaster on the carpet in the elevators and the hallways. Construction workers come and go in the elevators alongside customers with all their equipment and mess and noise. There's an operating cherrypicker in the registration area of the parking lot with no safety cones. You walk out the East guest door on the first floor into a total hardhat situation with people doing stonework on ladders overhead, construction material blocking the exit, and the door is usually propped open all day. I politely told the front desk that we unfortunately needed to check out 2 days early due to the noise, and requested a late checkout to 3pm because we had appointments at the church, and funeral home, and hadn't planned to have to change hotels today. Note that I'm a platinum member, and didn't expect this to be an issue whatsoever given the unusual circumstances. I was denied, and asked for the manager, who promptly flatly denied my request with literally the rudest most uncaring expression and flat tone possible. I reinstated my request and attempted to explain my situation, and the manager admitted that the hotel was not booked (obviously because my room was already spoken for for 2 more nights), but still, she flatly denied me. She finally told me it was because the hotel could experience 'loss of revenue.' So I'm here to tell you that if revenue is more important than customer experience or showing compassion to a customer you placed in a difficult situation, I will no longer be staying at La Quinta. I'll certainly never step foot in this one again, in a town I visit every month. And I’ll be demanding a full refund from La Quinta Platinum Customer Service, let’s see where that gets me. I also recommend anyone else over the next few months seriously reconsider. I don't care about your loss of revenue. Close this place, finish it up, and reopen. With a new manager. There are several really nice hotels with similar rates in the immediate area.

This is the second time I have stayed at this location. I would continue to come back and stay here each time I visit Fresno. The location is a side street away from Herndon, which means it is close to a major thoroughfare, but a slight distance away from the noise. It is tucked away next to another hotel, which I like because there is less noise, congestion and traffic. There is a CVS and Chili's nearby and can be walked, but is a good long walk. The hotel is currently undergoing remodeling, workers are around, but it did not impact my stay at all. The fourth/top floor is unavailable. The rooms are nice and are a suite, with a small kitchen and living area, adjacent to the bedroom. The lobby area is large and there is breakfast available each morning. The pool area looks nice and redone, though I have not used it. I would definitely recommend staying at this hotel.

Even with the pandemic we were satisfied with the cleanliness and comfortability of this hotel. The staff were great. Special mention to the front office staff Samatha who went out of her way to bring some bathroom necessities because housekeeping is gone for the day. Though there was no continental buffet breakfast that we are used to. The package grab and go breakfast was sufficient. Overall we enjoyed our 2 nights stay in the 2 bedroom suite. Thank you

We went to Yosemite in August and at the end of the day we drove to Fresno to send the night. The hotel room was splendid with high quality furniture and a TV. Despite the hotel being full, there was no much noise so we had a very good night of sleep. There is also free parking on-site. Plus, there is a free breakfast included with a good amount of different items. They require to go to the kitchen area, grab your breakfast and eat it in your room to avoid the spread of COVID. There is also plenty of fast-food restaurants near-by and a Walmart not far if you need to eat something or do some last minute shopping.
