In Ridgecrest, there was easy access to the room. In Artesia, access to the room wasn’t easy, and the breakfast was lousy - complete with frozen waffles and sloppy, soupy oatmeal. In Merced, the door lock on the room was broken. Front desk staff had to accompany each time my wife returned to the room in order to unlock it with a master key.
