Area was nice and room was as well. The only issue is that it sounded like something was chewing its way into or out of the air conditioner. This continued even when it was off but stopped for a while if I made noise.

All the staff members were so much co operative. Front desk lady helped us to check in one our earlier as our request. At 9:45 am one male staff member at breakfast helped us to have pancake machine fixed right away so my kids were able to enjoy pancakes. We felt it great. Because 10 am was cut off time for breakfast.

Had a very nice stay!

I really enjoyed this hotel! The staff were very friendly and the breakfast is good. My only suggestion is that they get carpet in the rooms - I could hear the people upstairs walking around all of the time loudly. I had an issue with my first room and the staff was very nice and helped me get a new room. The pool is also very refreshing when it’s hot! I highly recommend staying here.

Not a good value for the price of almost $400 per night. I expected more and was appalled to have to pay for parking in addition to $370 for the night. Would not return

Comfortable, clean, quiet, convenient to restaurants and shops. Friendly check-in; called in advance and requested early check-in - they said they’d do their best to accommodate- and they did - was able to get keys to room a couple hours before official check in time. They also have locked luggage storage room for guests.

Comfortable and reasonable place to stay!

It was an old building but maintained well. Run by wonderful staffs and it was really comfortable. No frills and no outrageous resort feeling. Just comfortable for sleeping!! Only thing that irritated me was parking lots. It was too small for SUVs most of customers had, taking over two spaces for one car space. I know there was over flow lots, but harder to access. Hope they can change that in the future.
