Bring Bug Spray & Good Walking Shoes

The Positives: The nightly price wasn’t bad, we had lots of space, it was a good location for walking to hop on/hop off stops, and the staff was somewhat friendly. The negatives: Parking was $57 a night (for a truck) unless we wanted to park down the road for $30 a night and haul all of our stuff. We killed multiple small roaches every day, there were fleas in our room-we killed one in our bed, and the hot water only got hot two times in the 5 nights we were there. The carpet in the room could also use a good scrub down. Needless to say, we washed EVERYTHING when we got home including the clothes we didn’t wear.

Our weekend getaway spot exceeded our expectations with ample room. We were close to the elevator and had a balcony to boot.

The reception during our check in was poor. The young lady with the dark short hair from the Ivory Coast was exceptionally rude. However honestly speaking the rest of the staff was friendly especially those who worked in maintenance and housekeeping. Breakfast was fine, nice options. Overall, quiet clean and spacious rooms.

Just ok

It was ok. Got the 2 bedroom suite on the first floor. Kids ran around in hallways unsupervised and was knocking on our room then running away often.. took two days of requests to finally get housekeeping done once on our 3 day stay.. front desk was argumentative about it even though I did request it the nights before. One of the fans in the bedroom did not work, the fan in the living room made a constant clicking noise every 5 second constantly. Had to park a block away for $35 for 24 hours otherwise valet was $42 a day. Breakfast was decent. Pool is small..
