Bo, Jan 2021
Pros (+) It was close to Hilcrest
Cons (-) When we plugged in the AC to turn it on it’s started smoking an smelling like gas. We had to switch rooms an the staff seemed irritated the whole time. Extremely run down for being “remodeled”

milanbg0906, Jan 2020
Pros (+) Leo at the front desk was great !
Cons (-) The room could smell better... get new towels.... the little fridge could be replaced cause it was making noise the whole time... also the tv remote could use new batteries...& fix the hot tub! Don’t say because it’s winter that no one will use it anyway.... I go all over the world and use hot tubs even if there is snow !
