I've rated the cleanliness a two due to leftover food in the mini-refrigerator that seemed to have been there a while. Aside from that, it was a wonderful place to stay.

Earthquake room

Dont get the room right behind the elevator. When the elevator gets to the 3rd floor the 2nd floor shakes and rattles all times of the night. The front receptionist at nights judges by looks. And the only thing for the inconvenience of hearing what almost sounded like an earthquake was. ohh thats unfortunate.

Next time I’ll stay somewhere else

Staff friendly when checking in and out. Room could use some updating. Bed was pretty uncomfortable, but showers water pressure was good. The view was nice. The elevator is slow and makes a loud banging noise when going down. The breakfast was not that great. Potatoes were undercooked, omelets were not very good, and pancakes were super tiny. Yogurt was good. $150 for a room here is way too much.

Not the best any more

Room was fairly clean. Toilet was clogged in the room, with a wet plunger wrapped in a wet bag sitting next to it. So, I tried to unclog it myself, despite this being an obvious on-going problem. It didn't unclog. So, I called down and asked for another room (for the aforementioned reason). She put us in another room. The toilet was slow-running in that one, but we kept it anyway. HIE is not what it used to be.

Nothing in stock

Phone in the room didn't work. No hand towels or wash clothes were available. The swimming pool was out of order. Breakfast was all out by 8am. Asked for blankets for the bed, they only had 1 sheet.
