The location was very convenient; the room was spacious and comfortable; the breakfast buffet each morning was great — lots of options and easy access for guests. Pool was quiet and nice. Gym was well equipped. Some notes: the hotel was at full capacity when we stayed and this led to the hot water not being easily accessible (needed to wait 4-6 minutes at times for it to heat up). The kitchenette was nicely stocked with cutlery and dishes, pots, etc — but lacked dish soap / sponge. As such, to clean dishes required running the dishwater more frequently. Parking is advertised as “self-parking available” — what this meant was parking rates of $35 plus tax daily ($45 for larger vehicles). Frustrating, because before we visited I’d sent an email / message to the hotel asking specifically if there were parking fees. They did allow us to check in early; they did help us check out later than the 11:00 AM timeline.

The staff isn’t friendly, the breakfast buffet was horrible, my room smelled and I had to pay $49/night for parking my “oversized” vehicle which fit inside the very same space they charge other vehicles. Never again!!!

The room still had a smell of Whatever the previous person cooked the bed sheets were not changed at all the just made the bed up there were stains and hair everywhere. The location was the reason I gave 3 stars. I also had to trust a young not so coherent valet at the hotel across the street because the parking was full at the hotel I paid to stay at

Hotel was great. The only thing is they charge $45 for a truck and they call it oversized even though there is no oversize parking available and most of the parking was a first come first serve so if you leave the property and there’s no parking spaces they don’t reimburse you your money you gotta pay to go park somewhere else.

I had a pleasant stay overall. The room was clean, nicely maintained, and had a modern feel. I especially appreciated the layout—the bedroom was separated from the living area and kitchen by a door, which made the space feel more like a small apartment. The full kitchen was compact but functional, great for anyone who wants the option to cook during their stay. The free continental breakfast was fine, though I’ve had better at other hotels. Parking was the biggest drawback; the hotel’s paid parking is very limited, and I ended up having to use another paid lot nearby. Despite the parking inconvenience, I liked the hotel and would consider staying again.
