In General the property was not bad because the hotel keep doing renovation. But, they don't want the guess adjust the temperature in the room and offer a blanket to solve it is too cold. For me is not a good choice since I get too cold with the air condition below 65 degree F. And the other think they offer a breakfast with a payment of $16.00 US dollars, but when I will get my breakfast at 9am they just finish the service. I don't know if I will go back to this hotel because I thing the price per stay will be higher after the renovation.

Gated access, secure parking, I think was unique and great. The staff was amazingly helpful. The room was pristine. The only complaint I can make is the ice bucket leaked on the table as the ice melted, but that is literally the only complaint I could make! I will definitely stay again next time I visit this way. Thank you!

The staff is very friendly. The rooms are big and clean. Unfortunately, we went during a time where the hotel is about to go through some renovations. Therefore, we couldn’t fully enjoy all the amenities such as a bar and restaurant in the hotel as the property states that it has these amenities which is why we booked the hotel in the first place. There is a safe gated parking and the pool area is amazing.
