Good hotel, room etc. but terrible internet

Hotel, room etc all good. But from first day (Sunday) internet was unstable. This continued on Monday and it interfered in my preparations for meetings in LA. I reported to front desk and was informed by Caesar they were aware and working on it. This continued and midday I cheeked again with reception. Still working on it. In afternoon still not working etc. etc. I informed the reception that if it didn't work properly when I returned from dinner that evening (Monday) I would leave Tuesday morning - 1 day earlier than booked. When I came back reception told me all fixed. On arrival in my room still cutting out several times per minute. I informed front desk and now he told me that maybe it was the room. Confirmed with him I would be leaving the next morning. Next morning I asked reception to give me a receipt confirming that I had been reporting the internet problems and he refused. In fact, his attitude became real poor and then accused me of being unruly. He also told me to deal with HOTELS.com for a refund for the prepaid night not going to be used. In short - the front desk staff really couldn't care less about the problem. BTW I have these internet outages recorded on video and pictures.

Would not recommend

Our stay was just ok. Pros: Free parking Good breakfast Good service Pool/hot tub clean Cons: Blinds did not cover window and let light in which woke us up. Bed was a bit hard. Most pillows were lumpy A/C would make really loud sound and wake us up. Found a hair on an unused towel Location felt unsafe

I flew from Indiana to spend time with my daughter. I have to say that I was very satisfied with my stay. The beds were so comfortable. I loved the bedding! The shower was strong! Everything was clean. Everyone in the halls were friendly and helpful. I loved the breakfasts. My favorite were the potatoes and eggs. Everything was super clean. I will definitely be back!

Not the worst hotel but the annoyances accumulated throughout our visit. May be good if you're passing by for a day, but you may not like it for a multi-day. Pros: - No room service so didn't have to be bothered someone entering the room every day - Area looks safe though we didn't spend much time outside and there is a building next to the establishment that looked sketchy. - Plenty of free parking and we saw security making the rounds at night - Has some food places on a walking / short driving distance . Made Burgers place was good and you can just walk to it. - Beds were reasonably comfortable (though could be better) - Free breakfast all the way to 10 am Cons: - Worst shower I've ever had in a hotel. Water can go from scalding hot to freezing cold in a second and you spend most of the shower time tinkering with the knob - Room keys kept getting deactivated. Not great when you're back at 11pm tired after a full day. - Towels and sheets were clean but seemed old or not bleached enough - The breakfast was so and so - Their machine coffee didn't taste great or fresh - Ask for a parking lot view. The other side was next to a weird building that looked like a motel. We heard a bunch of screams and loud laughs coming out of it not sure what it was. We asked to change. - The AC didn't work. We moved to a different room with a working AC. - Bathroom door needed some effort to close/open. - A bit of a musty smell inside the room. - Front desk staff is helpful but there is a

Had a great stay, staff was professional, room was clean. Good area of town, plenty of restaurants and grocery stores. Breakfast was hot and decent options every morning. Only negative was some guys hanging out in the parking lot late at night, and then more guys came to join them and hangout. I didn’t feel safe going down to my car to get the bottled water I had purchased. People should be moved along by staff or security and not be allowed to hangout in parking lot for long periods of time.
