Boarders Inn and Suites by Cobblestone Hotels - Ripon

I had a room with one queen and the room had a couch and a coffee table as well as desk and usual amenities.

This place is maybe a $75/night motel. The outfit that owns this place also owns Cobblestone in Ripon. I have stayed here many times for the last 20 some years. I have watched it go downhill. They charge what they do because they can, not because this place is worth it. They put no money back into the place. Zero. So it is getting very old. In my latest stay, the TV didn't work. Now they require an additional $25.00 security deposit. People behind the counter do the cleaning. It is so not worth it. But you have no other choices in Ripon

We found a thick silver ring in our bed that was between the mattress and sheet. This makes me think the sheets weren't changed/ cleaned. The breakfast was terrible. Even the bacon tasted old & reheated. Nothing impressive about the hotel at all.

Property is dated, but comfortable and quiet. Room was not cleaned entirely before our arrival, there was an open jar of pickles left in the fridge and a used bar of soap left in the tub. Caulking/trim around tub had crevices attacking mold and mildew.....

The room was smaller than most hotel rooms but adequate. It was very clean with well maintained furnishing. Breakfast options were not appetizing with a bland sausage of unknown origin and eggs. The charge was a bit pricey for a motel in a town that is not close to any major cities or attractions.

The woman that checked me in was phenomenal and very friendly!! She tried to help me with my concerns and what was wrong. The man that checked me out was rude and SO very unprofessional. Didnt want to listen to my concerns, wouldnt even listen to me when I express i purposely got a king size bed room the hot tub and there was a sign saying Out of Order. He said....too bad, already checked you out. The list is WAY longer but i dont have the time list it all

This place has seriously gone downhill over the years we have stayed here. Our room stunk like mold and had spider webs everywhere. The pillows stunk like Body Odor. However, I definitely appreciated the staff trying to be as helpful as they could. They all were helpful….except for the night shift guy with the ponytail he was tooooo professional and OVERLY serious about his job to the point it made us uncomfortable. We were completely bummed about the hot tub no longer being open. I think we will find somewhere that will maintain their property and amenities next year unfortunately.

Overall this place has charms that modern hotels don't have. Probably an elevator to the second floor would help some customers.

Property needs an update and deep clean for sure. All of the staff were super friendly and appeared to be trying their hardest. We didn’t use the bedspreads on either bed, as there were stains and maybe blood on the other. We would’ve asked to move to a different and maybe cleaner room, but this was a major aviation event and we knew there wasn’t anything else available. The spa was not working and the pool was pretty cold. We did a thorough check for bedbugs and didn’t see any evidence. We also set some traps, and there wasn’t any. The breakfast each day was “meh”, but at least my kids had a little something before walking all day.
