So the experience is definitely needed to work on as when I got there we got charged for valley parking yet we had to park our own car as there were no valley available. As well they charged me incidental fee which is fine but hasn’t been returned.. as well ima assume that the manager went to where our car parked and was just keeping an eye on us which ima go ahead and assume because I’m possibly brown and it looks like only white people would be there and he went all the way to our front window and peeked his head and asked us if we were ballet parking .. honestly was a bad experience over all.

The hotel is in a convenient location and very walkable. The property looks like it has been renovated, and the decor choices look great. Lobby is nice. Staff were friendly. The property does have lingering issues of an older building: Bathroom was small, toilet was weak, the lights went out while my daughter was in the shower. Our room had a pull out bed but no bedding. We did not visit the on site restaurant.

The only good part about this hotel is the hotel staff was really great! Other than that, it wasn’t the best experience. I wish I would have spent my money on a different hotel. Had to change rooms, phone didn’t work, the elevator was so small (I’m claustrophobic) I had to walk the stairs every single time I went up or down from the room. Not to mention I had 2 kids with me, 1 of which is a toddler. The site makes the hotel look a lot nicer than it is.

The property was in a great location. The restaurant was easy & good food options. The room itself was fine, seemed to be missing some furniture (odd open space). The bathroom was tiny & there weren’t any hand towels - very odd all the way around. Staff was hit or miss. The parking fee was OUTRAGEOUS
