I loved everything about it except the bed. It was too firm, not comfortable at all. Its the first time I stay at a hotel with an uncomfortable bed. Couldn't sleep well at night.

Amazing, but not having a Spanish tv was bad

The Hotel staff was amazing!! front desk, breakfast and Happy hour staff are the best and extremely helpful. only thing that I am disappointed on is that the daily parking fee was not disclosed at booking or when I checked in, and I did not notice it under the amenities. this is an extended stay hotel, and I did notice my room had a body odor lingering. It dint bother me much but it was noticeable eventually I bought an air fresher since I did not want to move rooms. lastly, they do not offer any Spanish channels on their regular tv guide. I was quite shocked and asked the front desk as well and they did not find the channel either. I have never been to a hotel that did not offer at least one Spanish channel. I am bilingual and I like to stay current by watching the News in Spanish and I was not able to do this at this hotel. unfortunately, due to the nature of current politics I found this to be extremely dishearten and made me sad to be honest.

Everything went pretty well. The only problem or i would say concern was getting noise from the freeway especially at night. The windows facing freeway should be more insulated. Otherwise amenities, staff, cleaniness was excellent and hopefully i will be staying here for my next business visit.

Great Stay

The room was spacious and comfortable. Lobby was clean. Breakfast was a big plus for us. The location was away from other places if you want walking distance to nearby restaurants. The room could add a mirror outside of the bathroom.
