Categories

Cleanliness
8.3
Multiple guests praised very clean rooms and accessible housekeeping; a few comments suggested the hotel could have been cleaner in places.
Service
7.8
Several reviewers complimented friendly, helpful staff (named staff like Nicole and responsive housekeepers), but there are notable negative reports of rude staff and unresolved issues (e.g., delayed/no deposit refund).
Location
8.7
Consistently cited as a strength—convenient proximity to city and nearby supermarket, easy access to appointments and attractions.
Room Quality
8.2
Rooms described as comfortable, modern and well-appointed (accessible rooms, nice furniture, good bathrooms); some guests reported firm beds/pillows and occasional AC/TV issues.
Amenities
7.6
Breakfast and all-day coffee repeatedly praised and in-room amenities (microwave, fridge, iron) noted; however, the pool being closed/under construction and some broken equipment (pancake maker) lowered scores.
Value for Money
6.8
Frequent complaints about unexpected parking fees, occasional double charges and perceived high price reduce perceived value despite good breakfast and clean rooms.
Food and Beverage
8.6
Breakfast received positive mentions (rich, great breakfast, coffee all day); isolated issues such as a broken pancake maker affected some guests but overall F&B feedback is strong.
Overall Experience
7.2
Overall mixed-positive: many guests enjoyed location, cleanliness and breakfast, but repeated operational problems (parking fees, double charges, deposit delays, some maintenance issues) tempered enthusiasm.

Schönes Zimmer - gutes Frühstück
Pros:

Sehr schönes Zimmer mit schönen neuen Möbeln > mit Couch und Couchtisch, einer langen Bank für die kleinen Koffer. Das Bad ist sehr modern und die Dusche mit flacher Duschwanne 👌Leider nur 1 Nacht auf der Durchreise. Das Frühstück war reichhaltig und es hat nichts gefehlt. Lage prima: In unmittelbarer Nähe (3 Min.) ein großer Supermarkt Kroger. Dinner nur 4 Meilen entfernt im Outback Steakhouse.

Got us by
Pros:

Liked that it didn’t feel over crowded, when we asked a housekeeper to help change our sheets the late afternoon on the second day she was able to come by right away.

Cons:

Pictures online of property are not accurate. We chose property due to ratings however didn’t experience the same.
Arriving late in the evening & tired after traveling, the Tv didn’t work and the AC cooling was inconsistent causing us to wake up when it got warm and getting up to cool the room several times throughout the night. When it cooled, it was too cold but would warm up again on its own, The bed and pillows are very firm. No drinking water in the rooms. For a 3 night stay for 2, asked for towels. Not sure why HK didn’t make it on the second day as promised.

Amazinggggggg, just not amazing enough to double pay. I love this place and will always stay!

Cons:

I was charged twice.

Ok for a night but not happy with parking charge
Pros:

Perfect for one night stay.

Cons:

Pay $8 for parking which seemed in a public car park. Would have not booked this hotel if it was advertised this fee.
