Stayed at Turtle Bay so normally wouldn’t stay at this place. Had delay so had to quickly find accommodation. Nothing flash, but good value compared to the other rip off options in the area. Clean and decent.

The fees that came with it kind of made me angry. The room was pretty decent. The balcony view was nice. The location was great. The parking garage is super tight and alot of the spaces were reserved.

Shower had hair all over it and staff reasonably responded to it. It took over 24 hours to have it cleaned. Outside of that, staff was very friendly and we had a great stay!
