Awful. Need my money back from Travelocity for the last day that we weren’t there because we had to find a new hotel. We had four of us to one bed because the first two nights we didn’t get the sofa bed that was supposed to come with the room. The second check in, a sofa bed that was broken and no one to come fix it or bring a cot after calling down to ask and coming back late realizing they hadn’t done anything we asked... TV remotes didn’t work so we couldn’t even watch TVs. The kids went nuts. The pool was very dirty and we got stung because of all the bees in it. The first two nights prepaid we couldn’t even be there because our flight had also been cancelled on us re-routing to Monday night. I officially request three nights of this booking to be refunded pronto or I will do a charge back on my credit card to Travelocity because the hotel said I would have to go through the third party booking for the refund. (760)672-7975 naomigoodale@gmail.com- please contact me immediately or just issue a refund to the card used.

The staff was friendly but the room was pretty gross. There were roaches in the kitchen and they left brooms in the living room area. The room had a loud ac unit that didn’t work very well. You can hear the freeway very clearly.

The property was in the midst of being updated and there are nice touches improving this property. The kitchen was being remodeled so we had to go across the street to the neighboring hotel (owned by the same people) for breakfast. Lots of works blocking off the front office entry way and different stairways around the hotel. A little inconvenient, but completely justifiable for thr remodeling/updates.
