Staff was extremely helpful. We were allowed to check in a bit early. We were greeted with kindness and a smile. Hot tub area was a bit loud when a few guests joined… we wanted to relax in quiet area, but weren’t able due to their very loud conversations.

Truly Spa

Immediate amazing first impression. Walking in you smell the wonderful spa essential oils, front desk is so nice, cute little tour of all the amenities. They have spa like music near the 24 hour pool. The decor is so beautiful. Great spots to lounge and relax. I can’t think of one bad thing, can’t wait to come back!

This is our 3rd year celebrating my birthday at this lovely venue, we absolutely love the Moroccan theme, the spa services are amazing, the rooms are gorgeous!!! The only reason I did not offer 5 stars is because the neighborhood no longer feels safe. When we arrived a very tattered person was creating a home in the dumpster 5-10 feet from the door. He eyed all the cars coming in and out as he pulled items from the dumpster. He remained there our entire stay. I could tell other customers were also a little uneasy as two were musicians and opted to bring their entire drum set up a flight of stairs to avoid leaving the items in the car. I would definitely not feel safe venturing out to the car without my fiance. Perhaps adding a security patrol might be useful...

Moroccan theme is well done in the rooms and around the property. Enjoyed the 2 good size pools, one outside, one enclosed hot pool. The hot mineral spring pools are the main reason we stayed here. Breakfast provided was satisfying and convenient. It’s a gem in a city that’s had better days.
