Washroom was dirty and not cleaned, looked nothing like how it is in the pictures. No safety box in any room. (As we had 2 booked). I've stayed at many hotels, this was not worth the money I spent and I would not go back.

Hey! I love the feel of the 60/70s property. Staff was great, the pool was great! I was just bummed cause I had reserved a comfort room and got one of the older ones and still paid the price for the comfort room. Also our room was facing the max and it was super noisy all night!! Now I know for next time to get one overlooking the pool. No sweat! All in all we really enjoyed our stay.

Pictures make this place look a lot nicer than they were. They make you pay for parking, the toilets barely flush. Mine and my other family members toilets in their rooms didn’t work well either. The beds were very uncomfortable. Not the cleanest either. Breakfast was pretty good, the pool was nice.

Staff, food, location were excellent. Our neighbors were extremely loud and we weren’t able to sleep until after 1:30 am. A call to front desk who told us to let them settle in as they had just arrived did not help even though I said it was extremely loud.

The stay was okay. It’s an old property and has an old smell. I really like updated, new bathrooms and the rooms have old, titled bathrooms. We found former hotel guests shorts and Popeyes sauces in our room. The rooms need to be tended to much more than they are currently. The ice machine on the 2nd floor doesn't work properly. Staff tends to stand around the front desk in a group talking to each other for hours. Upside, the MAX is right in front of the hotel and two sto p s away from the conference I was attending. Very convenient! However, after reading the good reviews before booking, I was a bit disappointed with the experience.

I love the customer service, easy check in, the breakfast and the style. What I didnt like was that I didn't know I was renting a dated hotel. Does need new carpet, and updated furniture, or drawers that slide out, not unevenly hang
