Overall, we had a great stay. Staff was kind, helpful, and responsive. The room and facilities (lobby, lobby restroom, pool, gym, hallways) were all clean and relatively updated. The location was good, and close to shops on the mile. It was very walkable with our kids (ages 9, 13). The only downfalls were (1) the parking situation was not ideal, and/or very expensive. There is barely space to pull in to check in and drop off stuff before going to a nearby parking garage. I recommend booking a parking garage reservation ahead of time. (2) it can be very noisy. You can hear a lot from outside (sirens, traffic) and hotel neighbors (walls seem thin), and then the hotel room itself is very "open" so bathroom noises are very noticeable (especially the sliding door to the toilet). But all that said, we would absolutely stay again. It was a good stay at a great price.

When we checked in, I let them know I booked two rooms but they asked me several times if I booked three because one room was reserved under the same last name. Rooms were fine. I liked that the floor was not carpeted. On the day we left, we got our car and we found a dent. Not their fault, but I wasn't happy.
