I found this property for pretty cheap, I know now why it was so cheap. The layout of the room is strange. The tv doesn’t face the bed and in our first room the entire window looked out to the inside of the parking garage next door. At night the led lights from the parking garage shined through the black out curtains. Literally felt like a jail cell. It didn’t match the listing photos or say there’s was an obstructed view. The toilet clogged easily in this room had to have maintenance unclog. I had two separate bookings so we were able to move rooms for the second night. The view from the second room was much better but this toilet also clogged wth. At check out be repeated to wait for your vehicle. Valet was nice but idk why they would insist everyone check out at 11 and not have the staff for it. The people ahead of us waited an hour for their car. While waiting for our car on morning one there was a guy shooting up drugs 6 feet away from us. I guess that’s why they say you get what you pay for.

An overall nice place to stay.

We came with Family and met up with them for a weekend reunion. I like the location and the card key system that locks up the front door. I do not like the fact that there is no parking. When you drive for 12 hours to get there, the last thing you want to do is have to walk five blocks to park and pay a high price for. The shower needs serious work. No water pressure. The showerhead is very cheap and takes forever to complete a shower. The staff was excellent. We had a problem with the air conditioner not working and the maintenance crew was on top of it within 10 minutes.

Pros: The inside of the hotel was very nice and comfortable. Clean rooms with all the amenities, excellent breakfast , staff was knowledgeable. Cons: So many homeless people in the area in front and across the street. No parking, either pay the parking garage in the property or the valet for 50 a day .This wasnt a big deal, parking your own car was $30 a day, which is reasonable. Called for early check, which was a charge of $15-50, No one was quite sure how much. I was redirected to the the 3rd party I booked through and even calles tbe property myself that morning, was promised it be ready for 1p and no room was available .Was then told onsite that told that even though I wanted to pay it wasnt promised but I could check in at 3p. Im paying extra why wouldnt it be available? Overall stay was lovely ,hotel was even better, didnt feel the safest outside though.
