The reservation included breakfast. However, when we went to the restaurant during breakfast hours, we were informed that there was no more breakfast available. They said they had run out of breakfast food. We had to eat breakfast outside the hotel. They didn't offer us any alternative. Yet, they were serving food to other guests.

Holly at the front desk greeted me as soon as I open the door to come in. She was very helpful and personable. Breakfast was amazing. The room was very clean. Would’ve liked to stay there one more night, but they were closing for remodeling.

Got sent to a resort that I didn’t book,so they tried to charge me more I refused. So they sent back to the original booking for which they told me they were having problems with something that never materialized. And now I left that room spotless and they are giving me the run around. So no I am not happy with my stay there.

Friendly and welcoming check in. We were given breakfast vouchers for each day of our stay. Nice free pancake and egg breakfast served at the restaurant on site. The room was a bit small but very clean and comfortable with all the necessary amenities. I would give this place an A- based only on the weak water pressure in the shower.

Clean room, pretty spacious. Good for the price for sure. Traffic noise was pretty high being right off the main strip, and the neighbor noise was noticeable. But we'd stay here again!
