Nice botique hotel
It was a great little place. Clean spacious, not difficult to get to, quiet, even though the freeway was right outside our window. We will definitely stay there again next time we're in town

The pictures on the website looked amazing and then when we got there, it just looked so old and rundown and it smelled like cigarettes. It smelled horrible and we were mostly intrigued by the back patio with the pool area was closed for renovation.

Great place to stay the night
I thought the room was great. They did say that we needed to request that housekeeping change the towels/ linens. Overall it was a nice experience and i would definitely stay there again.

Liked the dog friendly rule, but the area we stayed was so dated, sofa in room stained, kept towel over it so we could sit on it. Room service was timely and food very good. Front staff friendly , pool was nice for kids

30$ extra for checking in 10 minutes early , $25 per day for a parking space which I didn’t have a car for and 1 drink in the bar that I don’t drink alcohol . They said it was “mandatory “ asked for a quiet room and 10 minutes in my room construction on the floor below me was jack hammering until 5PM starting at 8 . Black mold and crumbling ceiling and walls in the bathroom, dirty furniture and the grossest sticky tv remote ever seen! On and on with no compensation or apology. Soon as you step off the elevator on 3rd floor you will smell the dank musty smell of water damage from somewhere. Worst hotel I’ve ever been in including motel 6s Absolutely Nasty!!

Awful customer service. Not one person at the front desk was friendly. And asking a question it felt like I was inconveniencing them. I never found the ice machine just a dirty laundry room.
The bartender was cool. He was the only accommodating employee.
Will never stay there again and will warn my people to not bother.
