We will still stay. Lol

We stay at Mariposa over night on our way to Mexico. The restaurant is AWESOME and the rooms are cheap for 1 night to just eat and sleep but definitely not a place for anyone somewhat "higher maintenance". Seems like the toiletries are just left if not completely used, like second handish. It is quite though and so far the front desk people have all been super friendly.

I requested a ground floor room upon making my reservation because I was traveling with my dog. The hotel confirmed I had a ground floor reservation. I got to the hotel and reiterated I needed a ground floor reservation and I was given a key card, directed to my room where my room. I called the front desk was actually a second floor room and the check-in person told me that ground floor looks over the Grounds. I’ve never heard such a thing. Also, my primary reason staying there was just to spend the night before heading into Mexico and my only plan that evening was eating and watching the NBA game and the TV did not work on only the channel that I needed to watch the volume was all static so I spoke to the front desk about changing rooms because I had to take all of my stuff back-and-forth with my puppy and go to the second floor room. She was kind enough to move me to a ground level room in front of the parking however the TV still did not work.

Some good, some bad

The Mariposa is under repair. Stopped at 5 pm, did not start until after 8 am next day. Restaurant service sucked. We were seated then the waiter went off without a drink order or leaving a menu to wait on another table. After 15 minutes we left for another nearby restaurant (Ragazzi) where food and service were excellent.

Unfortunate problems

Very nice staff, took care of several problems. The worst TV channels & reception ever! The curtains had sheer whites in the middle that did not block the lights from outside. 2 guests, but we only got 2 washrags on 2 days of a 5 day stay. Leaving towels hanging didn't keep them from being replaced, the non eco friendly part. Sub par breakfast. Thank goodness I like instant oatmeal and toast. The first morning I discovered the plug by the sink didn't work for a hairdryer. They fixed it that day while we were at work, but when we got back the pipe from the sink drain to the wall was disconnected and water everywhere. They fixed that the next day, too. Offered to move us but, more trouble than it was worth. As I said, a very pleasant staff. Room needed towel bars, 0. Recently redone. Shower no door just partial glass wall that did not stop water from pouring onto floor. Showerhead could only be turned slightly from center, to try to avoid the flood. Painter painted the tile wall next to the door as well as the door trim. No light by the full length mirror. No space to put your stuff by the sink. Long walk up & down stairs to only one ice machine.

The Mariposa is an older hotel. The rooms are clean and the staff are very helpful. The internet connect was non existant at times and the TV had to be rebooted by a staff member to get it to work. The channels were very limited.
