We loved the spacious junior suite. Extremely comfortable bed. Only negative was that the room was not as cool as it should have been, but staff was very accomodating with the willingness to change rooms or provide a fan. Our stay was wonderful.

Pretty good all round for a comparatively inexpensive hotel room. Nice front patio for food and drinks. The included breakfast is at a different hotel a few blocks to the south, and was decent. Check in was decidedly not good. The clerk was rude and tried to scam us into paying an additional amount saying the room had not been paid for, which it had been, in full, in advance.

My room was dated. I really expected more. To get to my room I had to go through a garden area and an ice parlor, which was really weird. The elevator was dated and iffy. My sister stayed in a different part of the hotel and couldn't believe what this part of the hotel consisted of. The restaurant had really good food and the location is awesome.
