A TRUE 1 STAR EXPERIENCE!
This place had a good price and that's about it. The manager was a young kid with no people skills. He spoke to his staff as well as myself in a condescending manner. Refused to give towels early when my wife needed them as if we were to shower on his schedule. He also likes to print at you alot but I believe it's cultural as he and his owner were Hindi, and this is not meant to be discriminatory, but Instead perhaps the environment he was raised in as some of the female employees who worked nights also had an issue how they were treated; almost like second class citizens. And this makes sense as he was rude over the phone with my wife but when I had to walk to the office to get the towels he decided to give them to me. The rooms were dirty but for the price it's kind of a given. It is a good location and close to stores and restaurants which was about the only benefit of this place. I did ask for the owner to call me regarding his manager, no less than three times and I received no return calls. I've been in the military and in law enforcement for twenty years and respect is a big issue with me. In short, because of the experience I had, if you could arrest hotels, this place would be ten to twenty years in prison for commiting fraud, i.e. for pretending to be an actually nice place to stay (I am not saying that they commit fraud; just a little humor because of the bad experience.
Bathrooms are child-size
I would have given 4 stars, but the bathrooms are way too tiny for a normal size person, let alone someone who is a bit larger. The door was hard to close once you worked your way around sitting on the toilet. Totally absurd to design a bathroom so small (5' x 5' is being generous) - literally. Also, beds were hard as a rock and pillows were flat. Thankfully the room was clean.
Second time staying here
This is a very nice, quiet location that is pet friendly. The only problem we had was that there was some local concert up on the hill and some of the quest were not very considerate of the other guest when they returned. This was not the hotels fault and we will be staying again.
not what you see
Clean rooms. No refrigerators,no coffee maker, no microwave, no hair dryers, no breakfast and no wifi. We called about the wifi several times and never could get it fixed. Very disappointing. Would not recommend this place ever.
Better than expected
This is a lower priced hotel so my expectation wasn't high but I was pleasantly surprised. The room was clean and modern and I asked for a room overlooking the valley and it was a good choice. Would definitely stay here again.
