I love staying here
Manny, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The hot tub was great and it was nice and hot, however, the pool and hot tub area are only open until 8pm. I understand that you get what you pay for but y'all are charging too much for this one. The whole place needs updated, it's kind of falling apart, and the beds are terrible. I guess i know better now 😕.

Stayed Monday-friday morning honestly a good experience i seen people complain about this place and only spent 1-2 days there a whole week at this place felt like home and i didn’t even wanna leave nice shopping center with a target about 5-8 minutes away depending on traffic and good food areas not to far away as well, will definitely be back

Comfortable, clean. A bit musty smell.
Lesley, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

The staff were friendly. Check in was a breeze and the continental breakfast was good - waffle iron, eggs, sausage, a variety of pastries and bagels, yogurt and cereal. A staff person was always at breakfast - refilling as necessary which was great. The pool is small but centrally located and the kids loved it. However, the property was a bit run down. The pillows and bedding had stains on them. The room smelled like steamed broccoli. We found two nickel sized live spiders in our room and a bat was outside the laundry room for 2 nights.

The location and surrounding areas felt a little unsafe and noisy. Great location for what I needed. Excellent staff. Clean room.

I have stayed here before.

This is the 3rd year I have stayed here since moving out of CA and only going back for visits. It's decent enough. Not outstanding and if you like a lot of luxury probably not for you but I find it to be OK to stay. Clean and comfortable
Robin, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The room had two queen mattress and the springs were shot on the sides, you had to sleep in the middle. Traffic noise. Staff and service were good. Continental breakfast was good, but surprised there was no cereal.
