I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very clean, which is a huge plus for me, but my particular room felt like a dungeon with low ceilings and a view of the back-end staff office right outside our window. Despite that, being close to reception made it convenient. The photos around the room were a nice touch.

Our stay at the hotel was incredible! The rooms were clean, spacious and had lovely decor for our family of four. The service was top-notch, hospitable, and warm. The location was cool, close to the freeway but still peaceful, great for both work and leisure. While the dining was a mix of good value and disappointing options, the overall experience was fantastic.

Our room was really enjoyable, clean, and spacious. It shared a wall with a loud woman, but the two-story layout was perfect for our family of four.

The hotel had clean and spacious rooms, with a $25 credit for the on-site restaurant where we enjoyed breakfast. The service was accommodating despite minor rudeness at check-in, juggling guest requests well. The location was convenient near the freeway but not noisy, with charming beach decor in the rooms and a great on-site restaurant. The dining experience, though decent, struggled to cater to all guests' needs. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor hiccups.
