Everything was excellent except that I received one day before of my stay an email saying that the elevator didn't work, so we made a lot exercise those days, we were in the third floor. The staff was always very friendly, the breakfast was great, the rooms comfortable and clean, the pool was heated it was a great plus. The hotel had an excellent location, we were close of everything we made.

Nice hotel and close to SeaWorld

Hotel was clean and quiet .even though it was right next to the freeway on ramp. Pool was warm and was in just the right location for SeaWorld.

The furniture was bad shape, sofa was torn and discolored. And for some weird reason they had an inch of gap under the door to my room, so that I could hear everything going on in the hotel. Having my room right next to the drain didn't help either. Not to mention the big aircon unit INSIDE the room. Oh and the elevators were no working but my room was only on the first floor, so can't really complain. Although the property itself was actually decent, but the neighborhood was definitely sketchy.

Front desk kept questioning my daughter who’s 14 asking why are in town and what are we doing here. The elevators were not working so everyone was limited to one door for entrance and exit guest and staff hitting one another and parking garage exit was blocked off so many accidents could had happened. The maid staff kept asking me everyday am I checking out is today your check out date. During breakfast the front desk staff did not want to the open the door for me until I showed her my key outside the door. Basically all women staff was very rude and racist I came to celebrate my daughter birthday but staff was just so unprofessional
