All the staff were super nice and helpful. The hotel was kept very clean, and even the outdoor pool was in good shape. Being right by Highway 5 was a huge plus, but there is so much within walking distance. Overall I felt it was a great value and would absolutely stay again. The only thing that bugged me was the overpriced parking- free street parking is half a block away.

Overall our stay was good, the rooms are renovated and cleaned well. The area around the building has an overwhelming amount of homelessness. I also think $38 a day for parking is extreme and it’d be nice to have complementary breakfast. We did have a disturbance at 3am last night when people were shrieking and there was domestic violence.

Parking plus technology tax, very small parking slots, no parking for large SUV. Front desk, Litzzy, her behavior was disrespectful and rude, and it made me feel extremely uncomfortable. As someone working at the front desk and directly interacting with customers, her attitude was unprofessional and inappropriate. In my opinion, this type of conduct is not suitable for someone in a customer-facing role. I left the visit feeling disrespected and upset. I do not believe that customers should be spoken to or treated in such a manner, especially when we expect professionalism and courtesy from your staff. Spoke to the manager prior to leaving and the response was.. she said she was agitated the line was long. Antonio did not seem to care either. I won’t return
