Anonymous, Jul 2021
I wasn’t accepted as a guest after paying/booking our room due to the proximity of where I live from the hotel as we were checking in. It was horrible making these plans and having them fall through like this. We ran into emergency home repairs and couldn’t stay in our own house. We had exhausting days and wanted to be in a relaxed environment and try to get ready for the next day. This really mad...

Pros (+) I liked the location and the friendly staff.
Cons (-) I didn't like the bed, the fickle air conditioning which worked part of the time, the small bathroom, the hidden blackout curtains, the street lamp outside my window, the baby and intrusive neighbors on the other side of my door and the toilet paper. I also didn't like sleeping until noon the first day because we had no idea there were blackout curtains until the front desk informed us the followi...

Cons (-) My only complaint was that the beds were way to soft!

Pros (+) everything was true to the description online. Delicious was breakfast and loved the $5 coupon. Location was right off the highway. Fitness facility was good enough. High-quality staff.
Cons (-) The walls of the room were pretty thin. We could hear our neighbors and the cleaning staff in the morning.

Pros (+) Nice southwest theme. Interesting art - especially the local art behind the front desk, and even better, the explanation of it to the left of checkin. The complementary breakfast was generous, and the waitress/hostess was very nice and accommodating for my wife's special dietary needs. Keep up the good work! Mike Palatas
Cons (-) The latch mechanism for the hand wand of the shower in the handicap room we stayed in (112) was broken - would not lock in position on the vertical slide bar.
