Liked: Cleanliness

Unacceptably uncomfortable.

I reserved a 2 bedroom with roll in shower. I checked in and went to my room and was florn about the sardined canned poorly made beds who had looked like someone literally just got up off of them. So I walked right back out and went down to request an upgraded king bed suite and was denied which let to argument between staff and I because I had a service animal and he said policy would not allow pets higher then the fourth floor and a king suite was not available. I informed him that he was not a per that he was a working service animal and I needed accomodations for him and I. He continued to insist on arguing with me about my SD being my pet. But proceeded with a smart remark by accomodating me anyway he though and I quite " I dont have to". I simply politely told him thank you. But still yet when I went to the new room there was one chair and zero tables but a desk with the tv on it. Seemingly ridiculous and completely uncomfortable. I ordered a room not a place to lay in bed during my stay. No chairs no tables just one chair a color or bed. HORRIBLY uncomfortable stay. But as I recall my last stay I enjoyed it but once again still no tables or chairs. To me I find this, for the cost and type of hotel, plain out unacceptable and a regret that will not happen again.

Could be better

The location was okay. This was by far the noisiest hotel I have ever stayed in. The freeway noise could be heard loudly through the windows. We were never given Wifi info and the guest wifi was awful. Had to go to a coffee shop to use my computer. The other residents slammed doors all night. The pluses were that it was very easy to get around. There were plenty of places to eat within walking distance. The pool was very nice. Never tried the restaurants as there was no room service offered to us but others said the food was very good.

It is unprofessional to have extremely photos of the hotel on the website. We arrived to see dirty doors and walls. Desk tops with striped wooden tops, and flying bugs crawling on the curtains in the rooms. The only bonus for this property was the managers willingness to allow us to cancel all three rooms without charge. Please do better!

Noisy

This hotel is so pretty on outside but it is right next to the highway. The traffic is so loud outside of the room. I tossed and turned all night. We received an upgrade due to a roach being on the floor when we arrived at checkout. The upgrade was for a city view maybe the other side of the hotel is a little quieter.
