Our stay at this hotel had some positives, but overall it was disappointing due to poor communication and lack of transparency, especially while traveling with a baby. The hotel appeared clean and well maintained upon arrival. The room itself was clean and comfortable and met basic expectations. We appreciated that it included a microwave, since many hotels have removed them, which is inconvenient, particularly when traveling with a baby and needing to warm bottles or food. Check-in initially went well, and staff agreed to switch us to a king-size bed to fit a playard. However, it was not disclosed that the room was on the second floor or that the elevator was not available. We only found out after receiving the room assignment, which required carrying our baby, stroller, luggage, and playard up the stairs. We later learned the hot tub was unavailable due to permit issues, despite appearing operational. Another issue occurred when my husband followed staff instructions to find the ice machine, and was yelled at by another staff member (“wo wo, no puedes meterte ahí”), which was unprofessional and humiliating. The only standout positive was breakfast—the staff was kind and attentive, and the food was good. Overall, while the hotel was clean and breakfast service was excellent, the experience was negatively impacted by poor communication, unavailable amenities, and unprofessional staff behavior.

What a make over from the previous hotel! The room was clean and the hotel looked spotless. The staff was courteous, very attendant...Just plain awesome! The hotel is still being remodeled so no heated hot tub or pool for cool nights...It's still bearable.

The hotel was clean and modern. The staff was especially friendly and helpful. Bed and rooms were comfortable. The entire hotel was set a a very cold temperature, so be sure and bring long pants and a jacket. We were unprepared. Breakfast was ok, just the usual powdered eggs, etc. coffee could definitely be improved. Very bitter. I would stay again, but bring warmer clothes and my own coffee. Again, loved the staff!!

Pros: staff were friendly and the breakfast was nice. Cons: Room keys never worked, had to have someone come to the room to let me in each time. I had 5 sets of keys across my stay. No elevator to the second level. Property needs details and attention. For example, new peeling paint in my room and no toilet paper holder.
