Very clean and the rooms are well insulated so you don't hear your neighbors. The breakfast in the morning was amazing with many options (waffles, yogurt bowls, oatmeal, eggs, bacon/sausage, tea/coffee/juice, bagels, muffins, toast). The pool and hot tub was clean but had a lot of chlorine in it. The only other minor thing was we couldn't get cold water out of the taps. It would go to room temperature at the coldest but they did have a water ice station down near the front desk we could fill up water bottles with. We would definitely stay here again!

The pool was great for kids, the perfect depth and the slide was fast and lots of fun! Little bit sketchy leaving your vehicle outside but they do offer underground parking for 1 vehicle per room. If you're standing outside you might get bothered by the homeless population, there's quite a few drug addicts walking around in a state of psychosis or extreme inebriation. But the hotel itself was quite nice, staff was friendly and breakfast was good

Our stay was great the service was on real good. Over all the breakfast was good the only thing was the pool was cold and for a packed place with families with children it was empty. I know why the water is cold we went to a public pool because my boys love to play in the pool.
