Hotel was clean, staff was great, and rooms were quite large, however the lack of air conditioning in all the common spaces was a problem. Especially the breakfast room, it was too hot to even eat in there. Also, hotel pools should be for hotel guests, not swimming lessons for the public.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
When we first checked in our room smelled like really strong cleaning products. We figured it had just been cleaned so we settled in and unpacked. By the next morning the air freshener smell had worn off and the room smelled like second hand smoke. Can’t believe they’d put a family with children in a room that had been smoked in. Food was constantly running out for breakfast with bacon being almost impossible to get. Pancake machine was malfunctioning and/or out of order all 3 mornings. They even ran out of coffee on our last morning. There were never towels available when we got out of the pool so we had to walk dripping wet back to our room every time. Family above us had a child running around stomping past midnight and again at 6am. We called the front desk but nothing was done. Do NOT recommend staying here.

It worked but there is room for improvement
We reserved a room with a King bed and were given a handicapped room with a queen. The front desk clerk was nice enough but so soft spoken we couldnt understand her. The room and entire hotel were excessively hot. My husband and I prefere separate blankets but there were no spares in the room. The hotel was clean overall and what felt like a safe neighborhood.

Rooms were recently upgraded. AC works excellent. Beds were comfy. Only thing feel should be improved is having public areas such as elevators more frequently cleaned. People from the pool wet the floor and got dried and looks dirty.

We originally booked for 2 nights thru Expedia, but then only actually needed the one night. I contacted Expedia and they tried their best to get it changed over but the actual hotel wasn’t contacting Expedia to change it.. I called the hotel and they were rude,cut me off mid sentence and said NO you didn’t book directly thru the hotel you went with one of “those cheap third party company’s” (these were her exact words) and she said contact them not us… and hung up…… I then contacted Expedia again and they were amazing and actually got it switched over for us. But then I was Shockingly surprised that the first price was $169/night and was then charged $333/night….if I had know that I would have cancelled not changed…. Definitely will not be staying at this property again!
