Horrid Staff.
Very disappointed, staff is extremely rude. I had received a room that was right in front of the air conditioning unit so my view was very poor. I asked the front desk if I could get my room switched to something with a better view, she then proceeded to lie to me about a full booked out hotel even tho it was not. I quite literally had to show their own website that they weren’t booked out and they gave me a room change. Not to mention how all of the staff lacked emotions, felt like I was talking to robots. Would not come back because the staff lacks hospitality.

If you’re going to charge so much for overnight parking, make sure that is disclosed up-front. Being hit with an unexpected $20/night charge upon check-in is off-putting.

Breakfast hours
Great stay. It was very disappointed that breakfast hours are different surfing the weekends. We stay here during club volleyball hours when our atheletes have to be up at out of the hotel by 7 on weekends which means breakfast starting at 7 doesn’t work for the athletes. Unfortunately for the rest of the travel volleyball season we will not be staying here and will be staying somewhere that offers breakfast starting at 6 am.

The overall experience was good. The breakfast buffet was good. One suggestion would be to upgrade the plastic dinner ware. It was flimsy.
