The staff provide very polite, courteous service. La Cantina restaurant has a mouth watering array of entrees and its within the hotel. Outdoor swimming pool is clean and towels are provided on each chair. I had no worries while staying at this hotel, best hotel I've stayed at, and I do travel often.

Road noise was not something that can be avoided , I guess. I had a minor electrical short in a wall light. Reported it in person to the night front desk. Nothing done about it . 2 days later I I tracked down a maintenance guy and he repaired it quickly. Housekeeping was very polite.

I would NEVER stay at this hole in the ground again. The staff was rude and racist. I stayed there for the Balloon Fest. I was so disappointed. The first night was traumatizing. The outlets did not work, there was insufficient linen, the phone cord had to be jiggled in order for the phone to work. We were moved to another room. The second night we were denied access, went to front desk and inquired about the inoperable key. Staff replied, "Its blinking yellow bc it dont work." Ya think? I was so ready to check out and GO. On the last day in the hole, all the power went out, no announcement from staff, just silent blackness. If you enjoy subpar amenities, this is the spot. The cafe is overcharged with cold powdered eggs. Just a nightmare all around.

Value for price paid.. low
For the price we paid, I don’t feel like we recieved the value. The air conditioner in our room did not work properly and we asked for it to be repaired, it was not. The breakfast “buffet” should just be included in the room rate, as there was not any variety and the food was all cold. Iris, the bartender was very friendly and hospitable. We most likely would not return
