Definitely needs an update. Lobby is in inviting, grays, black. Needs some colors to brighten up facility. Rooms were the same.Whoever designed these rooms needs to appreciate how colors and thoughtful decorating could make it more appealing.

Excellent stay. I got the king bed with kitchenette and it was great. Clean large size room, comfy bed and pillows, and everything you need to cook for yourself. Four large towels for the shower was great. You dont see that often. Covered parking. Multiple elevators and lots of parking makes it EZ to get in/out. Just be prepared to hear a train every 2 or so hours. Highly recommend for short or long term stays.

On our final nights stay--there was other guests that were out of line/noisy--fighting above us (sounded like a fist match) we called to the front desk no answer and upon checking out they didn't comment on our issues. Drainage in shower was broken and our TV did not work as well. Very centralized stay everything is in walking distance which was great!

This place is OVER PRICED for as dirty as it was! And one guy out of the 2 working the front desk we’re extremely rude! Shower had mold! The door to the bathroom needs to be replaced from damages as well as water damage. I could have stayed in a slum lord hotel for cheaper and probably just as clean, or should I say just as dirty?!?!

Absolutely no negatives! We plan to return. The room was impeccably clean. The shower was amazing. We had a lovely view of the ocean directly from our balcony. Breakfast was free and the options were great. Eggs, sausage, coffee, bagels, juices, yogurt etc. The hotel is in a very quiet location and perfect for our staycation to celebrate our anniversary. Customer service and the whole experience was top tier!
