The place was relatively clean and cheerful. Be incredibly careful with parking! Especially if you have guests. They work a third party towing company that comes through every hour to tow cars. The towing company operators are like sharks hunting for prey. If you don't have a parking pass on your car, they will nab it. And it's like $300 to get it back.

Honest review

The hotel has its pleasant aspects, including the pool and hot tub, but the front desk staff could have been more welcoming. Although my room was clean, it’s like they forgot they own a pool, with a lack of towels that they did not want to give us due to the room being “serviced” already, and those available were stained and dirty.

Issues with Bathroom

While the room itself was generally clean, I found the condition of the bathroom to be unacceptable. Upon turning on the light, I noticed several strands of long black hair (which were not mine, as I have short brown hair) on the bathroom wall. Additionally, I observed small insects emerging from cracks in the bathroom, which I had not noticed earlier because the light had been off. I was quite taken aback by these issues and, unfortunately, did not take photos at the time due to feeling grossed out by the situation.
