We booked a studio king suite and were given a basic 2 queen room claiming there was nothing left. Friends of ours showed up after we did and they were given a king. They also did not want to honor or 4 night booking thru Expedia for $669 They tried to charge us $919 claiming fees and taxes. After showing them my receipt on Expedia they said that was not true because it was not honored because it was not prepaid. They eventually did go with our Expedia booking, charging us $150 for incidentals.

The 1-bedroom suites are the size of a condo. It was quiet, had free washer and dryer available, a stove top. The area has many good restaurants. Attached to the Holiday Inn. So, you get use of their nice workout room and pool. This is excellent for long stays.

Good price for quick stay

Upon check-in, was given a room that was already open. The door would not shut. I explained this to the front desk, he told me initially it was fine and he would show me how to lock it. After several attempts, he was able to slam it locked. Could not be repeated and said maintenance guy at fault. We were then given a new room. Wall also vibarated for some reason.
