Clean room but that's about it
Pros:

The room was clean it was probably the best part of the experience and they had complimentary coffee and water.

Cons:

The people above were noisy. Not sure if it was just the people or what. The parking was a tight space and not the best. The pool was average and the "Bar" Just had beer and wine. I also didn't appreciate the fact that I asked if I could split up the charge onto 2 cards when I was checking in and the lady told me yes but they charged the card on Saturday night when check out was Sunday at 11. The charge was posted so it was not a hold. The location was not close to state street or anything really. Although the room was clean I would probably not stay here again it just didn't fit my needs.

Perfect place to stay
Pros:

Best place we stayed in the whole of California! Wonderful staff, enormous room, balcony, beautiful swimming pool and great restaurant.

Cons:

It was perfect
Small point - it’s in a residential area and the mile walk to the main part of town feels longer in the heat! But we loved this place.
