Amazing experience and superb staff.

The lobby and hallways were renovated and fabulous and the check in was quick and the staff were amazing and friendly. The suite was spacious but the couch in the living area was shallow and missing an ottoman. The bathroom was slightly small for the suite’s size but had a large walk in closet with drawers across from it. Both tvs in the suite were smart tvs and had Netflix and YouTube, unlike some of the other hotels in the area. The added wipes for the remotes and toiletries were a nice touch. Overall a very nice, spacious suite.

The room was clean however it had a very bad odor. No matter what we sprayed it did not help. My Wi-Fi barely worked. The phone in the room was broken so if I needed any kind of assistance, I would have to go downstairs to the desk, which was a huge inconvenience when I did go down to guest services and let them know that my Wi-Fi wasn’t working and my refrigerator in the room was hot. Therefore, I couldn’t store food. I had to throw whatever food I had away I was told that they had to change a lot of phones out and most refrigerators don’t get cold in the room smh. he help assist with my Wi-Fi on my phone, which then turned off when I got back to the room so although it was a beautiful room, I would not book here again.

How did this place get good reviews? It’s awful.

The location of this hotel is literally on top of a ghetto room by the hour motel next door. Didnt feel safe parking my car overnight and was watched by homeless people in the parking lot unloading my car. Breakfast was extremely underwhelming and they had servers for drinks but not for coffee, that was self serve. Servers also brought you silverware which I am guessing was the way the kept motel guests next door from coming over for free food. I don’t know how this hotel got such great reviews. It was 96 Degrees outside and my room was a hot 77 when I checked in. I turned the air down and went to dinner and came back and it was still hot and air didn’t seem to be on when I left. I went down to front desk who informed me the air conditioner is motion activated, so if you are not in the room it does not run. They did say they turned the mode on to VIP which apparently means it runs without the motion sensor because I complained that the air would shut off when I was sleeping, which they agreed it would, but if I got up to go to the bathroom, then it would kick back on. We also didn’t use the outdoor pool because it’s 5 feet from the ghetto motel next door, literally. Only positive thing was the beds were comfy.
