Very clean rooms and safe. Bar and restaurant options on site were fantastic. We would only offer that having the shuttle service more on demand and running more often would be a great amenity!

The property is old and dated. My bathroom sink drained very slowly and needed cleaning out. The noise from the freeway and the refrigerator made it hard to sleep. It was overpriced for what you got. I will not be staying there again.
