The property was nice for the price. The Breakfast was good for what I had expected. My room wasn’t cleaned by time i got back at 4:30 in the afternoon but I really didn’t need it, so I gave the woman my trash I wanted taken out. I had made my own bed that morning so there was nothing really for her to do. I’d stay again. Also I was traveling Solo, as a woman I felt comfortable with the hotel.

The staff was very friendly and the location is fantastic for being near many attractions and freeway accessibility. The room was clean and the continental breakfast was nice and fairly healthy! My kids enjoyed the waffle bar. We found the hotel layout interesting, but the parking is definitely the biggest drawback, as it is painfully limited as are the options for parking elsewhere/. However, this is common in The City. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and recommend this location for travelers!
