Either you pay $35 for valley parking or park behind the building where someone broke into a car the night before. This was not clear on the booking site that you have to essentially find your own parking! Terrible location! No water in the rooms and the bed mattresses were TERRIBLE. Only a single blanket for the sleep sofa, ridiculous. The room had hardly any power outlets, none in the night stands. They also initially booked us into a room with one single bed for 3 adults, how did they not see that!

Canceled on me. no notification.
Been staying here for the past 2 years in a bi-weekly basis. Always liked it as a basic, easy work hotel. On my last trip, I received an email that the hotel canceled my reservation and that they were oversold. I reserved on Hotels.com and prepaid. They still canceled me and couldn’t have the decency to call and explain the situation and offer to help. Horrible customer service and terrible business model. This will be the last time I stay here!

THE GOOD AND BAD
Good central location in downtown. Very clean but found water in coffee machine and did not work in the morning so was bummed also because air conditioner looks very old and did make very loud noise thru the night so woke me up a few times. Since I stayed below the gym then very early morning the noise of the weights being dropped on the floor woke me up! Ordered my car from valet parking as they said about 20’ prior to me needing it and they apologized as they did not have it ready and the number in ticket did not match so was very hectic morning and it made me get late to the appointment I had. Nice service in reception and even in Valet but just disorganized.

Not worth the money, but good location.
The hotel is not worth the money they’re charging for it, you’re basically paying for the convenience of location. The walls are super then, felt like my wife and I were in the same room as the people next to us, who talked very loud all through the night. There were also roaches spotted during breakfast the following morning, not worth the money.

Cleaning lady wanted us out in the morning
Everything was great, room very clean and had all amenities for our stay. Our only issue was the cleaning lady started knocking on our door at 9 am. We could hear her going down the hall knocking on all the rooms. She knocked two different times and then as we were getting dressed and packing our bags she opened our door and walked in the room at 10am. Our check out time was 11am, I even double checked with the concierge on that.
