Categories

Cleanliness
7.5
Mixed. Several guests praised very clean rooms and helpful housekeeping, but there were notable issues (feathers coming out of a comforter, a clogged sink, and at least one report of a flooded bathroom) that lower the score slightly.
Service
8.9
Mostly positive. Multiple guests call staff friendly, kind, and helpful; restaurant and front desk staff received praise. Some front desk lapses noted (not informing about shuttle, slow/poor handling of noise complaint, refusal of business center access), but overall service sentiment is favorable.
Location
9
Very strong. Many guests cited proximity to venues, waterfront views, and easy walking access to food and shopping as major positives, though parking/tax complaints were mentioned separately.
Room Quality
7.5
Mixed. Rooms are often described as spacious, modern, with great balconies and comfortable beds, but there are reports of maintenance problems (crumbling patio, leaking shower) and bedding issues that lower the score.
Amenities
7.5
Mixed/average. Some conveniences exist (shuttle service is available though not always communicated), but guests reported expensive parking, limited restaurant menu, and at least one denied access to a business center room.
Value for Money
6.5
Below target. Multiple comments call the property overpriced and cite expensive parking and high local taxes, reducing perceived value despite some guests saying it's good for the star/price point.
Food and Beverage
7.6
Slightly below average. Restaurant staff received praise, but the restaurant menu was described as limited by at least one guest.
Overall Experience
9.5
Generally very positive for many guests — described as a 'hidden gem' and 'absolutely wonderful' with repeat visitors — though isolated but impactful negatives (noise from a private party, check-in issues, maintenance incidents) affected some stays.

Would NEVER stay there again and ask if they are hosting private parties during your stay.
Pros:

The proximity to my venue and the friendly staff are the only good things I can say about my stay.

Cons:

The fact that the hotel hosted a private party outside approximately 100 ft from my room w/a DJ from 6-10pm was unacceptable for other hotel guests to have to endure!!!! When I called the front desk they were very matter of fact that yep, the part is from 6-10pm. At 10:05pm I had to the call the front desk to shut them down!!!

Would definately stay again!!
Pros:

Room was beautiful, clean and modern w/ spacious bathroom.
View was wonderful looking over the water.

Cons:

The only complaint was that we was not told by the front desk that there was a shuttle that took us over the bridge to Shoreline Village. The front desk told us how to get there by walking and never mentioned a shuttle to take us there. It was walkable (about a mile) but that is where the food and shopping was so we walked it 3 times that day.

I loved being close to the water. I took a walk in the evening and early morning.
Pros:

I like the Maya because your door doesn't open on to a corridor. This allows fresh air to come in the moment you open the door. So I do get a more resort feeling.

Cons:

The parking space could have been marked better. With numbers in the space, I wasn't sure if it was okay to park there because the numbers did not appear to match a building #
