Hotel is a bit dated and run down but was otherwise clean and comfortable. A/C in our room leaked water into the carpet immediately underneath the wall unit. It also ran constantly despite the room getting to below the desired temperature. Not a big deal given the temperatures while we stayed here, but could be an issue at other times of the year. Breakfast and pool were both good. Surrounding area also had a number of restaurants in a very short walk. Would recommend Sun Sushi (if you can get a table).

The only criticism we had was the lack of wall outlets near our bed for cpaps and phone chargers. Fortunately, we travel with extension cords. The internet connection was also unreliable and we were told by other guests that this was a problem they also experienced. The property is clean, well maintained and secure.

You cannot beat this location and the value. If you were looking for a reasonably priced option in a very very expensive area this is perfect. Yes it looks a bit older and dated, but we were incredibly impressed by how well maintained and clean everything was. Really grateful for this option and will definitely use again if we ever come back. We were here for a wedding and very happy with our decision to stay here.
