The 1-bedroom suites are the size of a condo. It was quiet, had free washer and dryer available, a stove top. The area has many good restaurants. Attached to the Holiday Inn. So, you get use of their nice workout room and pool. This is excellent for long stays.

The floors (bed, kitchen and bath areas) were all dirty. The bathroom was stained and had dog prints on the floor. Kitchen area had food swept under the counters. Although there were 2 cups, bowls and plates, there was only one fork, knife and spoon. The body wash dispenser in the shower was empty. The downstairs hallways were also littered with food.

Place was clean and nice . The only downside was the staff ! Lack of training and knowledge of the system! Prepaid by Hotels. Com and had to wait over 30 minutes at the desk even though they had a confirmation number. Also could not get my hotel points. Disappointed said couldn’t look up my account. Told me to call the company. Training needed.

Jason

We booked a studio king suite and were given a basic 2 queen room claiming there was nothing left. Friends of ours showed up after we did and they were given a king. They also did not want to honor or 4 night booking thru Expedia for $669 They tried to charge us $919 claiming fees and taxes. After showing them my receipt on Expedia they said that was not true because it was not honored because it was not prepaid. They eventually did go with our Expedia booking, charging us $150 for incidentals.

Good price for quick stay

Upon check-in, was given a room that was already open. The door would not shut. I explained this to the front desk, he told me initially it was fine and he would show me how to lock it. After several attempts, he was able to slam it locked. Could not be repeated and said maintenance guy at fault. We were then given a new room. Wall also vibarated for some reason.
