Our smoke alarm was going off at 3 AM due to a needed battery change. We ended up having to go to the lobby and were reassigned another room. We were told the Manager was not in upon checkout and were not given any kind of apology or to expect a follow up from management. Tired and disappointed upon checkout .

Staff were excellent, as was the location. There are many unhoused folks if you head East on Pandora, which may be a concern for some. L'Occitane toiletries were greatly appreciated.
