The Best Western University Lodge is, as the name implies, conveniently located near campus, though not actually on campus as some visitors may believe. They have 52 rooms, including 3 with kitchenettes. Prices here are $96 for a room with 1 queen bed, $110 for a room with 2 double beds Sunday through Thursday nights. Their rates are higher Friday and Saturday; usually $120 and $126, respectively (July 2008). On Picnic Day, Campus Preview Days, and during other events they have been known to raise their rates as high as $200 per night with a two-night minimum stay. They know the principle of supply and demand well. Check in is at 3pm, and check out at 11am.
Some of their amenities include:
-
Complimentary continental breakfast
-
Spa
-
Exercise room
-
Business center
-
Free wireless internet
-
Refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker in room
When the place is full, parking can be a challenge. They seem to have a shortage of spaces and many of them are tight or have low overhead clearance. Best advice is to arrive early and walk to dinner on sold-out nights. If you don't want to walk far, Baker's Square is right across the street.
Payment can be made by any major credit card. The hotel is rated two diamonds by AAA, and is pet friendly with no deposit required.
AAA or AARP will get you a 10% discount off the regular price. Card-carrying government and military employees get an even bigger discount.
Davis has another Best Western called the Best Western Palm Court Hotel. Best Westerns are independently owned and operated. For other places to stay in Davis, see Hotels.

2007-08-30 23:02:29 While it's true that this motel isn't actually on campus, it's so close that it's practically on campus; you really can't get much more convenient. Continental breakfasts aren't exactly fancy (think cold cereal, bread for toasting, some fruit, and packaged muffins in a small drafty room), but they do the job. It is a motel, so some rooms may have a fair amount of street noise. I have found the staff to be very friendly and accommodating, so if you do have a problem, they will fix it asap if they can. —CovertProfessor
