We booked the 1 bedroom suite with 2 queen beds. Very spacious. It had tons of room. Full fridge, microwave and 2 burner stove. They must have built that hotel well cause i didnt hear anyone on either side of me or above me at all. I stayed for 5 days and the only time i heard anyone from my room was 2 ladies in the hallway laughing really loud. Thats it and my room was right infront of the elevator. Very nice staff and accommodating. I as there with just my toddler and i and felt completely safe. Great location, around alot of restaurants and shop. Convenient! We'll definitely stay here on my next visit.

The most okay-ish hotel.

They were very short staffed. There was no one available when I arrived to check in nor when I wanted to check out. I requested a crib and it was never sent up. I asked the next person on shift and they did bring one immediately but it was broken. The room was large but the dishwasher was leaking water and no one told us- they just left a pile of towels to soak it up and never came by. We found old food under the table. There was a hole in the bathroom door and the shower made a very loud shrieking noise when it was on. There was no overhead light in the bedroom despite there being a light switch. The breakfast was decent but the eggs were cold. The hot tub in the pool area was so hot it burned you right away. All the vending machines were broken and the staff on duty said they didn't want to call the company to fix them so they put up a paper saying not to use it. There was really no one on hand to do anything. The area is really nice and there are lot of things in the area. The room is extra large and great for a family of 4. The in room jacuzzi did work.

The room itself was not bad. But the tvs weren’t working and the A/C was not working on the hottest weekend. It was 105 outside and about 85-90 inside. It was miserable.

Good from afar

Seemed nice, but closer inspection revealed cracked tiles, dirty wallls, a dried up contact on the bathroom floor, and some rubbery substance on the toilet lid. Plus, the pool had caution tape around it, horrible layout for breakfast.

There are only a few (but sort of critical for both functionality and aesthetic…) things with this property and I’ll quickly list the issues then pros! Two holes in the door, hairdryer was literally in pieces like someone tore apart wiring and plastic? Drawer in our kitchenette very clearly broken and falling off. The pool was down, no chlorine. We were told we could use LA fitness with a day pass showing we were guests at the hotel. Pros- HUGE suite. Full bathtub and shower, separate from the jacuzzi, and this could space-wise, have easily been two bedrooms or even three. Large sq footage, ice maker in the fridge so we didn’t have to hunt. The layout of the hotel is easily walkable, no long halls, easy parking, check in seamless and staff was AMAZING. The pullout bed was the nicest I have seen from a sturdiness standpoint, it was leather and lots of Velcro so things all had to place including the pillows. Except, it does not go up like a normal pull out couch. It took us a half an hour to figure it out. We are mechanical people, this was a special situation. The bottom, half of the mattress had no support and it was clearly broken.Held together by straps that would’ve been used maybe for a car, so we tied it up with those because nothing was attached and stacked pillows underneath to hold the mattress up. Overall, I was there myself with two children, the master bedroom was absolutely massive, there were three huge TVs in the suite, the king bed in the master was a dream!

Unexpected events

I get that it is a budget room for cheap stays, but at least clean on top of surfaces. This time I woke up at 4am to the sound of progressively paced tapping noises. Upon inspection found light fixture above entry door leaking water on the floor. Soon after, the smome detector joined in. At 5am I have 2 trash bins collecting water and the manager does not get in until after 6.

Key cards would reset no matter what I would or where I would put them, told not to put in my wallet which seems odd since it is a card and I’ve done this at other hotels no problem, very inconvenient had to make several trips to the front desk at times no one was at the front desk, toilet would stop working periodically in the room good thing I’m a plumber I would fix it, breakfast not good, bacon way undercooked muffin stale few selections, the whole 3rd floor smelled strong of marijuana really strong!

We’ve stayed there multiple times while visiting family in the area. The condition of the hotel and rooms has gone down hill. No glasses for beverages in the room, dishwasher not unloaded, no smoke detector in bedroom, smelt like ‘weed’ was being smoked on the floor. Staff was great. Management and overall needs improvement.
