Fair price , convenient location for the places I went to visit. NO breakfast included even though it was advertised when booking. Bedroom had only blinds, no curtains, hand soap dispenser broken. Average service for price.

The property looks clean especially at the front desk. But inside the room, its dusty and dirty, wiping the countertop is extremely dirty. Coffee maker has white residue, fridge was really bad, food stains and water drips. Then microwave, disgusting with food overflow stains.. Jorge was nice to offer change rooms but we just stayed since I cleaned it with clorox wipes already.. Bed is clean somehow. Linens have holes though..

Maybe the most uncomfortable pillows I’ve ever used. My entire group felt the same. The hot tub was also…lukewarm. Not hot.

Our stay was quiet and restful, and parking was easy. Only drawbacks were that cleaning staff left dirty sheets outside our room overnight. Also building is old, our room had an odor from the pipes.

Room was good and overall everything went well , my complaint is more about the front desk who asked for paperwork regarding my service animal and in the state of california this is actually illegal to do so the ada act protects people with disabilities from this , i have my pet cards but before the trip i called and they assured me i would not need my id card so i went without it however upon arrival they were insisted on it , so they left me with the option of paying for my pet . Under the ADA, hotels can't require documentation for service dogs.

Just about everything during my stay here was wonderful. My only complaint is that the hotel lists “breakfast included”. They broke this promise and did not have breakfast for its customers.

Cute hotel, looks like they are doing some renovations. Front desk was super friendly with great dining options. Laundry facilities could have been cleaner as well as the patio had spider webs everywhere. Room was big and clean. Had a weird smell, but that went away after being in the room for a bit. Fresh coffee would have made this stay better. All and all the price was right and rooms were clean
