The room was very clean and quiet. The bathroom was somewhat updated and looked great. Just a little small. When we checked in the gal at the front desk was so helpful and accommodating. You are walking distance to the best restaurants for any meals.

Lots of available parking. Plenty of mid level dining options nearby. Close to highway 3, no noise from the road. Our room was pool-side, and the pool area was hot. Our air conditioner drew air from this hot area, and struggled to cool it to our setting of 69. It was noisy all night long. Breakfast is available, not included! Less than continental, very sparse.
