Was fine, breakfast good, power out lets on left side of room didn’t work and shower had lump of long hair in the drain. Smoke alarm red blinking light was annoying AF at night. Room service sprays strong cleaners that got us nauseous.

Don’t book here
Floor if shower absolutely filthy and slimy. I asked front desk staff for cleaning service - they were rude and resistant to get cleaning help. Then breakfast was being shut down at 8:50 - I asked why so early - staff said ‘I don’t speak English’ - so I spoke to her in Spanish and. He simply walked away.

Great stay
I was impressed with the hotel amenities and convenient accommodations in the room (like the numerous outlets and lighting options). I had some of the best sleep here as compared to other hotels, as the PTAC unit generated nice white noise & the pillows were quite comfortable on my king bed. The food was excellent both mornings and staff was kind and efficient. I just wish I had time to enjoy that hot tub!

A bare-bones kind of room (the safe didn't work, the curtains didn't fully open, minimal decor) and not-very-good breakfast. On the plus side, the staff was friendly and the bed was comfortable. All in all, I wouldn't stay there again.
