"Eh.."

Reviewed March 10, 2026

We booked this hotel through a tournament travel website as we were visiting the Expo Center for a weekend of AAU girls volleyball. Unfortunately, we were price gouged pretty bad with the visit costing us nearly $500 for two nights! This would have been fine if the accommodations lived up to that price. We had noisy wall mates which made for a difficult night's rest given the girls were in the AM wave of the competition both days, we had a bath tub that would not drain so, not only were we standing in gross water as we showered, but we had unknown hairs from all over the body coming up from the drain from visitor's past (yuck) and we didn't have maid service show up at all during our stay. We came back after a long day of competitive volleyball to an unkept room. Like I said, some of this could have been overlooked or dealt with had the price not been astronomical. Overall, pretty disappointed and would not recommend this hotel.

"“ Won’t Be Back”"

Reviewed July 05, 2025

I would love to give this hotel a 5 rating. There are good things about it such as the lady at the front desk when we checked in was wonderful, the room was clean, the breakfast was pretty good and we liked the exercise room. The bad part was that they had booked a family reunion, which I’m sure would have been fine but a lot of people that were not staying at the hotel came to this reunion. They were bring in large amounts of alcohol.There were people in the dining area, patio and in the parking lot playing loud music late, walking and driving around the parking lot late, pulling up next to other guests cars, flashing lights at each other and acting very suspicious. There was no security at the hotel! We were not comfortable with this going on. We will never stay here again!

"Bugs and non-working AC"

Reviewed June 28, 2025

One of our room was infested with cockroaches. We were offered a downgraded room as a replacement and one of those rooms did not have working AC when it was 99 degrees outside. I have approached management for reimbursement for this and have been told that my photos of the cockroaches are not of his establishment and zero compensation for that or lack of AC. Stay at your own risk!!

"Closest to Amphitheater but should have stayed downtown."

Reviewed May 12, 2025

Nothing Special. Just a place to sleep. Only on elevator working which we normally would do stairs anyway but the stairs were inconvenient. You have to go thru the pool area. Other stairwells led to outside, but sign said you’re on camera and if you go out the door an alarm will go off. Website said onsite bar and dining, NO not any more! There was a bar around the corner so we drove there.

"Excellent service"

Reviewed November 18, 2024

The front staff and housekeeping staff were amazing. They were very friendly and helpful and the rooms were cleaned immaculately. We appreciated the extra help that they gave us from lost earrings, lost room key and taking up table space. We will definitely be back.
