The property itself was nice and convenient to the Peirs. Wish we would have gotten a discount for have to leave hotel at 3:30 in the morning due to fire alarm going off. And then next night it also went off, but only rang once then quit. Besides that I would recommend.

The images used are not accurate to the property. The area is unsafe and noisy. The front desk service was disorganized and left the lobby unmonitored for over 10 mins with a line of guests waiting. We left an item in the room after check out and they said it was gone and nothing was every found or returned to us after 6 phone calls. The room was noisy and the walls are so thin you can hear breathing from your neighbor. The bathroom doors are glass sliding, no privacy. Don't recommend!
