10/10 Exceptional

It was a very pleasant stay. Everything was excellent especially the mattress and bed comfort. We would love to know the mattress brand, type and size including any details - as we are looking for buying one that is comfortable as the one at the hotel.

6/10 Good

I Was Disappointed.
The hotel is very nice, but the area not so much. Too many homeless all around. They offer a very nice breakfast buffet. The pool area is beautiful. Some staff are friendly/ others not so much. Parking on site is also very expensive/ but worth it since the area is not the greatest. Close to 6th Street & lots of bars & eateries.

Very clean and friendly. Breakfast had a great variety and very good! Location was perfect. Beds very comfortable. Pool was very nice. One issue is an outdoor music venue located across the street. Too loud for sleeping on weekends
