The room we were in had a window facing the back of the property with a view of the freeway and you could hear cars on the freeway through the night. It wasn't awful but if you are a light sleeper it could be a problem. Breakfast was awesome. Fresh cheese omelette!

I was disappointed that there was no microwave in the room and there were no towel racks by the sink. Also, the 2 rooms I reserved for 2 adults were not available upon our late arrival, so I was assigned a handicap room (I'm not handicapped) and a room with bunk beds for an adult man.

Property is right off Interstate; convenience is good, noise is bad. Parking is advertised as an option for covered parking. It’s actually on site parking for $24 per night or park on the street for free. The street is dirty and sketchy but didn’t have any problems. Room service did not clean one night but brought towels up upon a call. Rooms were spacious and clean otherwise. They advertised discounted attraction tickets but when asked we were told they were locked out of the ticketing system. It seems to be a popular place for tour groups as breakfast and the pool were at capacity with two tour buses with teenage kids. Breakfast was good.
