Fodor's Expert Review Aggie Inn

245 1st St., Davis, California, 95616, USA

A basic two-story motel with a touch of style, this Ascend Collection property less than a block from the UC Davis campus has nine spacious cottages (the best choice) that families often book. Guest rooms are done in muted tones, though candy-apple-red accents brighten things up. Each room has a flat-screen TV, microwave, refrigerator, and coffee maker. A few suites have whirlpool tubs.
