They misrepresented all amenities, the place is almost under the bridge where there were a lot of homeless people in the area. THERE IS NOOOO PARKING only a $35 per night valet service. Stunk of marihuana outside and by the lobby. Shown as pet friendly but there was no let area and nowhere to walk around since it was a quite unsafe area to walk your dog outside in the middle of the night. The staff was not helpful or knowledgeable. Twice I was told I would get a call back and Im still waiting. Pleeeease DO NOT STAY HERE.

If given the opportunity, I would not stay here again. The bed was hard, and very uncomfortable. I woke up with a sore neck and back. Upon check in, I discovered that parking is a nightmare. Either pay $35+ for valet or pay $5 for parking under the freeway, and risk getting your vehicle broken into. Loud street noises kept us up. Also be aware that they hold an extra $50 until you check on your card. The only thing that I enjoyed was the breakfast, and the rooms are cute.

No baby cribs available

No baby cribs on site. I selected this hotel over other options because it listed cribs available for use upon request. When I arrived I informed the front desk that I had requested a crib when booking, his first response was that there were no cribs onsite. I informed him I read they were available upon request and his only advice was for me to talk to my booking agent and offered no other alternatives. I booked a month ahead and didn’t travel with a baby crib for my toddler. No one reached out to me to let me know my request was not being delivered, not a call from Hotels nor TRU, I would have had time to look for other options had I been informed. False advertisement and poor customer service on both sides.
