Nice rooms and friendly helpful staff. While some minor maintenance is needed in general areas, the ammenities were acceptable. They have a decent exercise room that's currently open, and an adjacent laundry. Great for a workout while waiting for your laundry to finish. I would consider staying here again, especially if for work over a few days or more. The hotel is popular for contractors it seems and wasn't too noisy during my stay, but thats likely due to considerate neighbors.
This hotel was ok. Room was very nice with full size fridge and stove top. Also an putside gas grill for grilling my own steaks. Service was ok however in my whole 10 days stay there was nobody visible on the counter at any time of the day. Also the elevator broke and was down for the whole weekend which was not convenient. Be carefull if you get a room close to the pool or grill area, folks gather there and it may be a little inconvenient if you have to sleep early. I do have to say that by 9pm the hotel was quiet and never had issues with noise. Good value overall.
Was surprised when I walked into room as I was expecting just another hotel room but this it was not that's for sure. Had I been staying for a while longer inwpuldve taken advantage of the full size refrigerator and the stove top provided. Bed was good and comfy as were the pillows. I generally have fold and smoosh and fold the pillows to get em just right. Didn't have to do that and was out like a light in no time.
Stayed a week while working in the area. Very spacious room we were in 314 , with nice kitchen and big table/desk area. Full living area with a recliner and sofa. Very clean when we arrived. Housekeeping upon request and free laundry area with speed queen machines that work great. All the ladies at the front desk were very nice and so helpful each time we needed towels or advice on places to eat. Very good Mexican restaurant right next door that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Our bed was a little on the top firm side for me but still slept well. Mostly working guys so the hotel is very peaceful and quiet. I recommend this hotel especially for extended stay.
Jesse the maintenance guy was very helpful with the television in the room setting everything up. Highly recommend
I had an issue with my tv. Josse the maintenance guy was quick to get to my room and got the issue fixed with no problem
Great staff. No security cameras at all on the exterior.
Lady at the front desk was very helpful, she couldn't find an available room that early in the day, went to check with her manager and they were able to find me a room. Room didn't had shower curtain and I made a mess while taking a shower, it also had a very light smell of cigarette smoke, probably the last guest but it wasn't too bad. Cleanliness and attention were awesome and it made my stay very comfortable. Overall no mayor issues, I recommend this place and definitely will stay here again when I'm in the area.
