A little pricey for what it is but ok

Room was clean and comfortable. The price per night was a little higher than it should be. They also charge $100 hold for incidentals and threaten a $250 excessive cleaning fee. Not a bad stay or hotel, but ok for a 1 night stay.

Horrible - Price gauging at it's finest

This was one of the worst experiences I have had. We were charged $299 per night. I expected prices to be slightly inflated due to Parent's Weekend at USC, but this place was terrible. Outside of the delightful woman who checked us in, it was downhill from there. 1. TV did not work, it would freeze up constantly 2. The toilet made an extremely loud noise after flushing. (They did fix this). 3. There was no conditioner in the room. I asked for some and they said they were out. 4. The fire alarm went off because of steam from the shower. This happened at 6:30 in the morning when other guests were sleeping. I asked why this would happen and they said it was very rare (we heard them going off in several other rooms) 5. The shower drained very slowly so there was and inch or 2 of water 6. The AC did not keep up.

Great Hotel; Sensitive Smoke Alarms

The hotel was very nice overall. The rooms, televisions, furniture, etc.. were updated and clean. My only complaint is the smoke detectors were easily set off from the shower steam. The fire alarms went off three times during my visit (with hotel staff having to come into my room two of those times) in the middle of me showering. It was very inconvenient that the detectors were so sensitive. I also wish there were more options for the continental breakfast. The days that I went, it was the same: sausage, eggs, and biscuits (as the hot options) along with your typical options such as yogurt, cereal, waffles, fruit, etc... It was a great hotel. I would stay again but they have to get those smoke detectors fixed. The staff was also friendly and flexible in making accommodations for the room.

Book elsewhere

The beds were clean and somewhat comfortable but the bathroom was filthy. The floor had visible dirt on it and there was already something in the trash can when I first went into the room. The floor looks like it hasn’t been swept or mopped in days. The refrigerator and microwave are from the late 70’s maybe early 80’s and with the increase in prices for these rooms everything should be a bit more updated.

Clean hotel where th one flaw

Everything was clean check in customer service was great. The lady at the front desk really nice. The room was clean. The pillows is basically the only reason why they didn’t get five stars. I feel if I stay in a hotel and it’s just mainly to spend the night and get rest that the pillows should be a lot better ten lumps
