The hotel is really nice and the room very spacious, the beds mattress is really really hard which makes it very uncomfortable, breakfast was good but could have more options, the area around the hotel for 3 blocks is very very dirty and with lots of homeless people not nice at all to walk.

Amazing hotel. Very beautifully laid out, attention to detail is exceptionnal in the design. Staff is professional, helpful and polite. Pools and spas feel nice, lots of spots outside the room to just rest and enjoy. Plants everywhere make for a great natural ambiance. The walk from the most busy area can feel a bit sketchy at night but we did it (2 women) without any problem. If you were uncomfortable, it's a quick and cheap cab ride. Apart from that, it's a good five stars from me!

I love the facilities. I was not so crazy about the surrounding area. You have to walk about 10 min to get to the plaza and the area that is more active. This city has a great deal of vacant commercial properties and folks hanging out. During the evening I suggest you take a cab to enhance your safety.

Safety is a major concern at this hotel given its location. I would not arrive/leave the hotel unless you take a taxi. I was truly shocked given the rating of the hotel. This is a fine hotel, but don’t expect 4 star quality or safety.
