"The craziness of this place is that it’s a sporty location and from outside it makes you question if able to stay safely. Once walking in the room, it was great. Clean room. Remodeled bed and bathroom."

"All the staff here is amazing!! Stefany at the front desk was so accommodating and friendly! Israel in Lost and Found went above and beyond to try to find an item left behind. Our room was spacious, clean and had a nice view. Only complaint was the shower, the handle was messed up and we couldn't get it to work. But only a one night stay, so not a huge problem. Also, don't use the creamers in the room for coffee, they were all spoiled! Overall, fantastic stay for an amazing event!!"
