Gisselle, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean rooms, and I got the parking package which made it really easy for me. Convenient location and near by transportation and food. Friendly staff and I love that they have hand soap and lotion in the rooms. It was a bit annoying to have the water station only located inside the gym and to have the lobby bathroom to be hotel guest only. The moment I check out I couldn't use the bathroom or get water. But overall it was a great stay!
Ho Ki, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Pros: location, staff, view Cons: trucks don’t fit in parking lot, no water in room, hotels.com inflexible about changes to itinerary
