Room was excellent! Was a mild challenge finding the room on foot at night (the place seems best structured for people who have their own car) but other than that I was very pleased. Would stay again.

Hotel and room are OK. Bathroom was on the small side and the shower had a glass door with a drape on the side instead of a glass panel. Also no towel bars. Our heaters thermostat was broken and we could not set a temperature. We mentioned issue to management. Beds were comfortable and the unit was clean. Breakfast was limited, bagel, bread, cereal, apples, coffee and orange juice.

I stayed 2 weeks with my dog while my local home was being worked on. It’s a great place to have a dog because the large lawn with old growth trees and walking paths made it easy to open my door and take the dog out. People sat outside and chatted in their groups. Very pleasant and beautiful grounds. The room was adequate, but hot water ran out in the afternoon. You have to ask if you want your room cleaned. A good value for the money.

Room was clean. Staff was curteous. I booked a garden room a few weeks prior to my trip. Negatives: the room was the one nearest to the freeway amd do you could hesr ths traffic. We arrived at night and the exterior was very poorly lit. Yjere was barely any astroturf in front of my room so not s garden room in my opinion I was told hotel rooms completely sold out but i could have a room change the next day or change to a room in back w different beds. I was reluctent as it was so dark that i did not feel safe. We entered our room via parking lot and the light was so low we couldnt see room number under the sign. Once inside we could not locate light swtch in the dark for 15 m. Side walk was uneven at entrance. There was a chain on the otherdoor that seemed insecure. The room was 57 degrees but warmed fairly soon. We got extra blankets. The next am i walked by the front of rooms at 9am. There were at least 5 vacant rooms near to mine as i could see the beds all made and blinds slightly open so it caused me to doubt about the lack of available rooms. I called a day ahead to ask them to insure hot tub would be warm and was told it wasnt working at all.

Worst experience staying at a hotel- half the amenities were non functioning (no hot tub, fire pits were broken). Small rooms, shower had no hot water, shady looking people staying in the room next door. If you’re coming with kids, do not recommend! Spend a little more and stay in a safe place that has warm water and has working amenities. I’ll be contacting management!

Multiple health and safety violations including: Black mold, no hot water, no soap, exposed insulation and toxic materials, windows that were deliberately disabled from opening, not changing the towels between guests and dead insects on the towels. I was in room 107 and then room 111. In room 107 there was no soap, no hot water, and the heat never got above 52 degrees. In room 111, there was black mold showing through a very thin layer of paint, dead insects on the towels that had been used to kill them by the previous guest or the staff, the door was coming apart with exposed insulation, the bathroom windows were deliberately disabled so they could not be opened for ventilation. I reported to staff, the receptionist "Griselda" and the manager "Namrata", as well as the maintenance worker. The receptionist and handyman both lied to me repeatedly, then the receptionist lied to the manager when she thought that I couldn't hear her. There was a long list of complaints about filth, pipes, and heating in a list with the corresponding room numbers, including no heat in room 108, sitting on the reception desk, but the manager tried to lie to me that there was no problem in any other room or with any other guest. This is a place of business that makes lying their standard. The first time I caught the receptionist lying, she tried to convert me to her religion and the second time she threatened me. They said I had to wait 2 days to talk to a manager, and then refused to refund me!
