Everything was perfect!! We came for one night for a concert, it was the most comfortable experience ever. The staff at the lobby were extremely kind and were so excited to take pictures for their polaroid wall. Beds are really comfortable, shower and bathroom all good as well. Great parking spots. The Crust Kitchen restaurant on the area was also a great breakfast spot. We really only have positive notes, absolutely making it our go-to hotel for next trips!

I stayed here for one night before my surgery. The staff was friendly and the room was nice. They didn’t have early check in so they let me hang out at the pool. I checked in last night after surgery. The staff was not as friendly or helpful. My room was not that clean and I had no hot water.

Always felt like you were being watched. No drink machines, office offered no brochures for the area. Cleaning staff wouldn’t talk English. Long walk in the dark from public transportation. Restaurant that was close was very expensive. Only liquor store in area. I was visiting from out of state and my family and friends didn’t feel comfortable visiting me there. Ruined the whole visit.
