The water in the gym is disgusting....there were many brown particles. I used my bottle and didn't notice it until I opened the lid to take a look.... AND they don't provide a water bottle. Which is fine, but it means the only water station was not clean... how long haven't they washed it? Other things were okay. But you can't imagine how I feel when I saw the brown things in my bottle....

The room is nicely designed with a partition, creating separate areas for a sofa and TV. It features a regular-sized refrigerator and a sink, distinct from the sleeping area. The hotel caters to extended stays, with room service scheduled every 7 days. Fresh towels are readily available upon request at the front desk. The room is well-maintained and equipped with modern amenities.

Everything was fine except for the parking on the weekends. There wasn't enough spaces nor are they big enough so some trucks and SUV's had to take up 2 spaces. Asked the front desk where to park when we came back late and they said we could park in the fire lane. Granted there were already some cars parked in the fire lanes and in non spaces. Breakfast they made you which consisted of eggs, pancakes, sausage and hash browns. They also offered cereal, so not a big variety.

Friendly staff and hot, fresh breakfast. Breakfast is limited but is cooked upon order (scrambled eggs, hashbrowns, sausage, and pancakes) plus beverages and cereal. Property is showing its age that some cosmetic updates in the rooms can't hide. Water pressure was horrendous and the toilets are round, not elongated so keep that in mind if you have digestive needs/requirements. Parking could be a challenge as it's limited (but free). All rooms are faux suites with no real wall to divide the living from the bedroom spaces. Mini kitchen does not include hot plate or tools (cutlery, serving ware, plates etc.,). The kitchen did not even include soap, dishtowels, or paper towels. On our last day I saw a tiny fridge magnet shoved way to the back on the side that said we could request items from the front desk but too little, too late. The full size fridge was great. There was a faint dog smell in our room but we arrived at 2am so we weren't going to complain. This is a dog friendly place so that just might be the way it is. Everything seemed clean, otherwise. Just a little run down in corners (like the tub and plumbing).

Contratamos 3 noches de hospedaje, no cuentan con seguridad en las instalaciones, nos salimos un día antes de nuestra estancia pagada, fuimos víctimas de robo en el estacionamiento del Hotel, y a pesar de que teníamos seguro de viaje el hotel y el seguro no se hizo cargo, no nos brindaron atención ni apoyo, no hacían aseo en las habitaciones, no tenían agua, no nos permitieron ver cámaras para ver lo del robo, ni apoyo ni asesoría nada. Muy mala experiencia, no vayan.
