Easy checkin, parking was convenient and close to our room. There are many eateries & shops nearby. In N Out is right next to the hotel. We were awaken by a faulty fire system at 6 am that woke everyone up and had to evacuate and find out what was going on. We would cone back, but hope that system is fixed.

Great, except if you have a soap allergy.
Overall I will say this was a great place to stay, an enjoyable breakfast experience and very clean and comfortable rooms. The only issue I had was the fact that they use Dove liquid soaps and shampoos. I only mention this because I have an allergic reaction to dove liquid products (not the solids) I asked for an alternative and was informed they don’t carry one. Other than that (I did go to Ulta Beauty and purchased some items for the stay), I enjoyed this location and the staff there were wonderful.

It was 6 of us total ( my husband and I and 4 children). We all slept comfortably. It was a bedroom with 2 queens and a separate living room area with a pull out couch. We borrowed a crib for my youngest daughter. They also had a small kitchenette with a sink, refrigerator, and microwave. The bathroom had nice soap products from Dove. It was quiet and the staff were all friendly and helpful. The only thing everyone wasn’t too crazy about was breakfast. It was decent, they had a mini pancake machine that was making pancakes, they had sausage, omelettes, cinnamon rolls, bananas, and cereal, The drinks were orange juice, cranberry, apple, and water. My family didn’t really like the breakfast, but I thought it was decent and did the job. Overall we would stay here again, it was a great choice and affordable.
