Booked the reservation through Expedia because hotels were in short supply and the Vagabond was near the university. Photos looked ok online and it is a national chain. WOW...what a dump! It has turned into a residential hotel. The breakfast was a pot of bad coffee, there was noise all night long, and the parking lot was a zoo. Clerk... More

We stayed one night at this motel. The cost was $295/night because it was graduation weekend, which is also why we were there. The receptionist was very sweet, but that was it. The room supposedly was non-smoking; it reeked of cigarette smoke and the bed spread had burn holes in them. The floors were dirty, obviously not vacumed. There was... More

I regret don't take a looak at these reviews before I made my reservation. I needed to spend a night in a place close to CSU Chico. I didn't expect too much for the price but I never thought that the rudeness was the price that I have to pay for a cheap hotel. I don't know the name of... More

I stayed during the month of January for 2 nights. The exterior of the building put me off a little bit, but when I got into the front office the clerk was very nice and presentable to boot. The room that I checked into was not overly fancy but it was clean. The maid service was prompt during my stay... More

I always try and find something good to say, so the room was clean. Other than that yikes!!! I am the first one to say don't expect much from discount hotels but we all still expect some comfort and honesty in advertising. Rock hard beds and carpets that smell like smoke (In a non-smoking room). The body towels were barely... More

Since I come from a densely urban area, the noise factor did not bother me too much. I wear ear plugs and bring my own sheets and quilt at any motel I go. The room was cleaner than reviews here belie. And walking distance from Downtown and Bidwell park, etc. is a major plus. However, because the rooms under me... More

Two night stay, got double charged. Did not think it would be this difficult to get the second charge reversed but after a month of multiple phone calls a day (manager Melissa does not return phone calls), speaking with both desk clerks and "managers" AND being assured that situation has been resolved, although credit card statement states differently, have only...

I stayed at the Vagabond INN on March 11th. The motel is older and it shows, but my room was clean. The only complaint I have is the clerk Beth, VERY rude and short on checkout. I explained that the room needed more towels for the amount of people in room. She began to argue with me, so i just... More
