Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's fantastic location and overall cleanliness, highlighting the beautiful views and the convenience of nearby amenities. However, many expressed dissatisfaction with the service quality, particularly at the front desk, and reported issues with the bathrooms, including unpleasant odors and maintenance problems. While the bar and food options received mixed reviews, several guests were pleased with the price-value ratio. Overall, it seems that the location and staff are standout features, while improvements are needed in service and bathroom facilities.

Pros (+) Location is the only good thing I found. But that is because it was only about three blocks from where I was to conduct my business.
Cons (-) This is a party hotel. The lobby, pool, bar, and hallways were full of loud drinking partying young people. The noise level was loud even inside the rooms well past midnight on weekdays. Room service was unable to deliver because their staff were all serving at the parties.

Pros (+) Balconies were amazing and pool/bar area was nice. Enjoyed having a shuttle to get around nearby and plenty of parking.
Cons (-) Hallways were dark and dated, but rooms were nice and renovated. Not much light in rooms and not enough outlets. No water overnight due to city repairs, then no hot water all morning when water came back on.
