I booked a King Suite with Sofa, but upon arrival, I was given a standard King Room. The front desk told me the suite was unavailable and that the hotel was fully booked. They also claimed I had booked a King Pet-Friendly Room—which was inaccurate according to my confirmation. Since it was already late, I had no choice but to stay. The hotel offered no meaningful solution or compensation for the downgrade, and I was left paying for a room type I never received. To make matters worse, they provided an extra mattress as a substitute for the missing sofa bed—and later charged me for it. The staff was not polite or helpful, which made an already frustrating experience even worse. I will not be returning to this property and strongly advise others to double-check their reservations and be prepared for poor service and follow-through.

The room was great thankfully because all of that dust, dirt, banging, sawing, was unacceptable. No swimming pool available. It just wasn’t somewhere people should be staying in for a restful night sleep. You should really consider closing until all those workers coming in and out are finished, so people can enjoy themselves. It was my first vacation in 10 years and the hotel was not up to par in any ways - the conditions!!!!!

Our room was great. The first room they put us in the ac wasn't working well, but they moved us to another room. Parking was a little tricky but they let us park in valet when there weren't any parking spaces left. The only let down was they were remodeling and the gym and pool were closed. So when you first go inside it makes you think twice about your booking since it's got so much plastic and construction going on. But like I said we were happy with our room.

Horrible experience.

This trip was horrible. The place was in complete shambles. Everytime I got an uber they were like "whats going on" or would cancel on me because the place was totally under construction. I was supposed to share the room with a friend but when I sent them the video they stayed elsewhere because it was in such bad shape so I got stuck with the whole bill which was astronomical for what this was. Plus it was extremely loud one night so I got absolutely no sleep. Please email me as they hotel hasn't gotten back to me. I have videos. This is unacceptable. See some of the pictures.
