Really like this place

We had a 1BR suite. It was very comfortable, clean, and perfect for us. The grounds and amenities (exercise room, basketball court, patios) were really nice too. I highly recommend this hotel.

First time was perfect, second time not so much

My first visit went perfect and was a smooth experience. The second time they gave me another room without letting me know beforehand, and the washer was broken so it ruined my clothes.

5 night stay

My family and I had a wonderful stay! The staff was friendly, the room was clean, and the hotel was in a quiet area with plenty of shopping centers and restaurants nearby. Aside from the noisy shower door and the AC unit being loud when it first turned on (though the noise faded afterward), everything exceeded our expectations, and we’d love to stay here again.

Christine

Traveled with family and small children
Liked: Staff & service
The “crib” they promised to have brought to the room ended up being a dirty pack-and-play with stains on it. It also was not secure and collapsed on one side with baby in it. This was brought after asking multiple times to please bring the crib that was requested over a month prior. The refrigerator in the room was randomly very loud like a kid squealing a few times and then back to quiet. Not a huge deal until it woke me in the night. Just a very average place with raggedy features.
