"The staff were awesome. Especially Kevin at the front desk. Everything I asked for was granted. Room 424 I think that’s the room. Corner balcony room was awesome. The kitchen staff were so kind. Absolutely loved it. We will be back. We told several of our friends and they too will be staying. See you next year!"

"The only good thing about this hotel is the view. The service was fine checking in. Although the view was great upon entering our room in the kings row building, that was about it for positives. The room reeked like musty smoke. The doors were filthy. We wiped them and the bathroom knobs and handles and our wipes were black when we finished cleaning. A wash cloth was dirty when I went to use it. There were strange, plastic like netted covers on the chairs, I suspect to cover gross chairs. Made us not want to sit on them! We went onto the balcony and it had stains from pets all over the place. Then when it gets dark, the staff light the fire pits outside. The smoke billowed into our room which caused my husband severe allergic reaction, with red and swollen eyes. We will never stay here again. 3 nights for 950 bucks, is a waste of money. Additionally, guest smoking weed next door was annoying as well."
