Arden Star Hotel
Quiet at night and the comfort of home. Arden Star Hotel — just East of the Cal-Expo Racetrack — is very reminiscent of an adventurer’s business trip. Here for a good time, but not a long time. The entire place is fully upgraded into the 21st century, and who doesn’t like a late-night dip into the jacuzzi? Inside each room is a bed worth plopping on and letting relaxation take over the body, mind, and spirit. Nothing too snazzy about Arden Star Hotel, but its front desk associates make the stay 10-fold. Get some shopping done at the Arden Fair shopping mall and experience a race like no other at the track literally next door and enjoy a cozy night at the Arden Star Hotel. - Jordan Dietterich of Surfside, Florida
