We really enjoyed our stay but we found one of the morning male staff desk attendants was very lazy at refilling the hot water for the coffee bar, there were some homeless people slipping in and getting coffee and staying on outside gated patio, television reception was very poor, for the amount I paid to stay I was a little disappointed. The cleaning , kitchen and valet staff were excellent.

I sadly have to say that I was extremely disappointed by the cleanliness and appearance of our room. The reviews were excellent and the information boasted “newly remodeled rooms”. There was hair in the bathroom, all types if you catch my drift, the “remodel” was just paint covering old walls and doors. The kitchen area was new and had everything we needed, however the stove had hair on it. There were no sheets for the fold out couch, luckily we brought our own. The 2 small elevators caused quite the wait time and we actually got stuck in it for over a minute. We were about to call for help before it started up again. The staff was wonderful, extremely kind! The free breakfast was delicious and they mixed it up a little each morning. I would stay here again if it cost me half the price. I feel a bit sick to my stomach knowing how much I paid for our room.
