For the most part everything was amazing. Staff were kind, courteous, and helpful. The view outside our room was beautiful. The one thing I disliked was the shower had low water pressure. I also did not know I had to pay for parking but seems typical for the area and after doing research was a much lower rate than most hotels.

They gave us the smallest balcony in the entire hotel. Very upset. We were supposed to have VIP access and they gave us the worst room!! Very disappointing. Asked for a change in the room and supposedly “all they have was 2 queens”. The person I spoke to was very rude and spoke to me like I was some kid!! Unacceptable. (I called from our room adm he answered “Yo”?!? Who says that to a hotel guest. Btw. I’m my husband and I are in our late fifties! We ended up staying in our room that barely fit one person on the balcony but will never go back!!

The pillows are flat and the AC filter needs to be changed. The only thing good about this place is that it’s only 2 floors high which makes it easy to come in and out and the amenities work. The room was very affordable. It kind of has a mildew smell in the room but I think the filter needs to be replaced.
