Too expensive to have to sleep with roaches. Other than that property is decent
Pros:

For my room to be so expensive each night . I stayed four nights. And once I turned all the light out at bed time I found roaches in my room.it was my daughter bday well I ordered the efficiency meaning I had the stove icebox and drink. But I couldn’t leave any food on the table the roaches got all in my baby’s cake even while the box was closed and my 4th night I paid 248$ and I just don’t think it worth the price to have to sleep with bugs. Everything else is bearable

I would not recommend this hotel unless many changes and investments are made.
Pros:

This was a disappointing hotel so it is hard to give any positive feedback. The staff were friendly and helped where they could.

Cons:

The hotel is showing its age and the lack of upkeep. Close to the main road and with so much potential it was a shame that it is so rundown. The shower tiles with breaking up the door handles falling off. One of our group had cockroaches running around their room and had to be moved. The replacement room was not really much better.

Pros:

Everything was walking distance and easily accessible, the freeway was a bit noisy only because they were working on it during the days I stayed here.
