Arrived at hotel at 12pm due to American Airlines changing my flight and Juan made the accomodation to allow me to check-in early. The hotel was in a very busy area but it had some nice stores in the area which made it very walkable. Hotel was very clean and the staff was very friendly.

I requested a specific room type which I had been allocated, but unfortunately it wasn’t cleaned even an hour after check in so the system isn’t working very well. It was quiet at the back of the hotel but we were right by a big AC system outside. It isn’t clear at all how to drop off here. You can park on the road and pay online per 15 mins, the car park at the back had the barrier down when we arrived and we didn’t want to block the road.
