This is a very nice hotel, and I love that it is suite-style with a kitchen in every room. My stay was very comfortable, and the front desk attendants were all very nice and helpful. The breakfast was also very plentiful and with a good variety of items. My only complaints are that my unit had an ant infestation in the bathroom and bathroom sink areas, they don’t give enough towels considering housekeeping doesn’t come into the room during the stay, parking is very tight, especially when people park large trucks/vans or guests park over the parking space line, and that only one person is staffed at the desk at a time. On two occasions, I went down to the desk and had a long wait time because the attendant was addressing a guest issue. I know companies are trying to cut costs, but folks working in customer service should never be left alone to serve guests. There should always be at least two people. But, overall, I am glad that I found this hotel, and would definitely stay here again.

I had a connecting flight from St Louis to Phoenix before flying to San Diego. The flight took off and 20 min later, the pilot announces that there was smell of smoke and that the plane was being turned around back to STL. It took 3 hrs just to get my luggage back. I did try calling your hotel, but was told It involved a 3rd party. I purchased booking protection plan, so hoping I get a refund due to the unusual circumstances.

My room was filthy, the pool was filthy. The exterior of the hotel was nice. I was switched from a recently renovated room to a very old one. There were dead bugs in the kitchen cabinets where the pots were, greasy furniture & mold on the tiles in the main bathroom shower.

Great price, great breakfast, great place to stay!

This was a great place to stay for the price. The breakfast in the morning was really good.❣️ my grandchildren, especially light having pancakes and sausage before we headed out for the days activities. Nothing like starting with a full belly.😍 Thank you, Theresa Anderson

The staff was great. Unfortunately the cleanliness was not. The towels had makeup of them. I don’t even think they were washed. This is more of a house keeping issue. Nobody came to clean the room while we were there and we had to keep throwing out the trash ourselves. The dishes were dirty. My daughter grabbed ice from the freezer and found a hair in the ice cube upon putting it in her mouth. The walls were not wiped down. There was already a washcloth in the garbage which makes me think they are not really cleaning. There was also something that looked like dried pee on the floor next to the toilet on the floor. When I put a towel on the ground because I felt disgusted with the floor, the towel was literally a dark brown on the opposite side. Which means there is no mopping happening. We paid over 400 for just two days. Wish we would have listened to the reviews.

I like the safety of the property and very quiet. The staff were nice and the maintenance staff took immediate action when the problem came up with the bathroom shower even if it was late to make sure we were comfortable. What we didn’t like about the place was the breakfast for the last three days we were there. There was no food at all on all the warm containers; no coffee; no hot water; no bread, muffins or bagels; it was bad. There were a lot of us guests waiting for the breakfast. It was still 45 min before closing. The staff doing the food were not keeping up with the food area to ensure there were plenty for the guests to dine but all empty food containers. We had to wait for them to prepare. Took about 15 min to fill the containers, etc… Sonesta CM was the best hotel. Never experienced what we experienced in this RB location. It was a disappointment and a disgrace to guests who stayed at this facility. We’re not coming back to this hotel. The staff in the kitchen should be replaced and/or fired. They did not do a good job!!! The worst hotel to have free breakfast??? La Quinta was even better!

Room for Improvement: Not a Bad Experience

The overall cleanliness was just not top-notch. The restroom doors could have been wiped down, and the refrigerator door on the outside could have been cleaned. The inside of the refrigerator was clean. There was a pot, pans, and a stove. The room had great air conditioning and the beds were comfortable. The hallways and the area around the hotel needed more cleaning attention. The carpets needed to be vacuumed and shampooed. The outside area was destroyed by guests but was not cleaned up promptly by the staff. The guest areas (dining area, BBQ, back patio, and pool area) were uncleaned for hours, and if you tried to use the BBQ and pool area, you could not, as it was dirty. Yes, it was due to guests not cleaning up after themselves, but as a guest, I could not enjoy my stay. The breakfast was good; however, if you did not get downstairs first thing in the morning, you may not get any food. Coffee was out, and you had to ask. Making more food took a very long time. Again, this is an issue with the guest over-taking food. Overall, employees did not seem to care. I am not picky, as it was not a bad stay for us, but there is room for improvement.
