The room was ok, kinda loud with construction workers working which I didn’t know about until check in time which I couldn’t do anything about! Front desk staff were giggling at me because I didn’t know Spanish! No ice machine on property, no face towel and water pressure was weak at best. Probably won’t stay there again!

The room was clean although no hot water have to wait a long time for some lukewarm water for a shower. Would say it’s overpriced. Paid $ 100 Canadian for a night. There is better value just have to look around.

well, unfortunately, I'm allergic to chlorine so having a pool in the middle of the building and having every single door open onto the pool with zero other ventilation in my humble opinion was not a great design, but it's your choice and I hope you're happy with it

First of all they are having huge construction going on..that starts at 9am till 6pm. So expect a ton of loud noise. Then neighbors around the hotel almost every night had super loud music on. So over all very noisy. Other than that the only thing I didn’t like they only gave you 3 towels..2 regular ones and a small one.

The location was perfect and stay was great staff very friendly and room was decent! Just needed the water to be warmer in the showers but overall wonderful stay would recommend to my friends will be back thanks 🙌👌🙏
The rooms were clean, spacious, and serviced daily, which we really appreciated. We stayed in Room 205, and unfortunately, the bathroom had a noticeable sewer smell. When we mentioned it to the receptionist, there seemed to be a misunderstanding, and we were informed the hotel was fully booked, so changing rooms wasn’t an option.
There was also construction happening during the day, and as a result, the pool couldn’t be used because small white debris was falling into the water.
That said, the staff were fantastic, and the location was excellent — both definite highlights of our stay. I would have happily given 5 stars if not for the bathroom odor issue. Overall, I still totally recommend this place and believe it’s a great option, especially because of the service and location.
