My disappointments with the property were the beds, which were uncomfortable, and the water pressure for the shower was very weak. This property still has tubs, which makes it cumbersome to get into and leads to leaking of the shower onto the bathroom floor. These are the two most important features for me in hotel rooms. I don't believe I will be returning to this property

Clean my room once in 5 nights even when it was requested. Paid breakfast included in Expedia rate and it was not honored. They charged two extra days of parking. Breakfast horrible. Charge 14 USD for an avocado toast that was a price of bread with guacamole. No eggs. They run out. They didn’t even give you a spoon to eat.

The A/C was not functioning correctly and they even gave us another room to try that also had a poor functioning A/C. We decided to muscle through but got a terrible night sleep, which was the main reason we chose the hotel, we needed a location close to our conference for a good night sleep.
