Clean room. Comfortable bed. Lots of things to do nearby. Pet friendly. Pool area is relaxing and breakfast options and coffee were good. I did have to straighten out a couple issues with my booking such as it not showing that I purchased breakfast and my card getting charged for the stay even though I had already paid.

The staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved the rooftop pool and the location was perfect. We easily walked downtown to eat or shop everyday and could hop right on bike lanes to go explore the city. Overall the hotel was well maintained and offered nice amenities like a bar, free pool table, breakfast and etc.

Water took forever to get hot in shower. Walls in pool area need deep cleaning. Coffee service in room needs to be replenished daily along with trash removal. In a dog friendly hotel would be nice to bring dog to pool area so we can all enjoy it together. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Complimentary coffee in lobby was very good. Breakfast available was OK for price.
