Leading up to our stay, I called a couple times to try to coordinate an adjoining room. They said they were not able to fulfill my request but upon check-in, they said that they had figured it out. This was much appreciated and we really enjoyed our stay. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again. The property seems a little dated in the beds are not very uncomfortable, but other than that it fit our needs.

I liked that they've maintained the 50s-60s style of the interior courtyard! And the pool was very nice! I was disappointed they no longer have the restaurant and lounge they advertised online on orbitz. We had hoped to arrive, have a drink and light meal and go to bed. I have Dr appts in the morning. We found a place a little ways from there but I feel mislead by the internet photos and descriptions.

Hey! I love the feel of the 60/70s property. Staff was great, the pool was great! I was just bummed cause I had reserved a comfort room and got one of the older ones and still paid the price for the comfort room. Also our room was facing the max and it was super noisy all night!! Now I know for next time to get one overlooking the pool. No sweat! All in all we really enjoyed our stay.

Pictures make this place look a lot nicer than they were. They make you pay for parking, the toilets barely flush. Mine and my other family members toilets in their rooms didn’t work well either. The beds were very uncomfortable. Not the cleanest either. Breakfast was pretty good, the pool was nice.

The stay was okay. It’s an old property and has an old smell. I really like updated, new bathrooms and the rooms have old, titled bathrooms. We found former hotel guests shorts and Popeyes sauces in our room. The rooms need to be tended to much more than they are currently. The ice machine on the 2nd floor doesn't work properly. Staff tends to stand around the front desk in a group talking to each other for hours. Upside, the MAX is right in front of the hotel and two sto p s away from the conference I was attending. Very convenient! However, after reading the good reviews before booking, I was a bit disappointed with the experience.
