We were looking for somthing cheep and cheerful near to the university and this fit the bill nicley. The staff were helpful, the room was clean and spacious and we got a good nights sleep. The only down side was that the Wi-Fi was virtually unusable and the aircon was old and noisy. Overall though it was a good little... More

Stayed there one night. Room/bathroom was clean and the mattress was decent. Lives up to its reviews. Good proximity to the University, 4th Ave and downtown The area is not in the best part of town, there were some transients passing by on Stone but I never felt unsafe. Pool was well maintained The manager Henry is very friendly and... More

Given the amenities, it's hard to call this a budget motel. Though the breakfast was minimal, it still was more than I expected given the rate of $45/night. The bed was good, the shower clean, the AC worked well, and the location seemed safe. I'd stay here again.

The continental breakfast was good and included rolls, fruit and coffee. The freeway was easily accessed. Stone steet was noisy at times but seemed to quiet down... More

Great location (quiet area between University and downtown). University Inn is an modest economy motel in an older building. Driving up, it is not impressive to look at. Usually, this is a formula for a bad experience. Not the case here- very clean and quiet with a comfortable bed and regular TV (non-flat screen). Refrigerator and microwave... a pool but... More

I don´t understand where all the good ratings come from. The furnishing is dated. The nearby road will keep you awake or at least wake you up in the early morning. The breakfast is a joke. The pool is literally next to the street. The location is good though.

I gave this place four stars - not because it's a 4-star hotel, but because, within its own category of lower-priced hotels it is safe, economical, clean, has comfortable beds. The rooms are very basic, no frills. But we wanted a place to sleep comfortably at a bargain price. You can walk up to the very cool area where there... More

The place may not look like much, but the rooms were very nice, the staff was very friendly and helpful, and the price was fantastic! As long as you don't require luxury, this is a great place to stay! It was far better than we expected!

University Inn is a very well maintained, spotlessly clean older property. The staff is friendly. The location is very convenient to both the University and downtown. Lots of extras like free wi-fi, HBO and breakfast. I prefer rooms that open to an interior corridor but I felt quite safe here; it was quiet and comfortable. Unbeatable value for the price.
