This was our second stay during the last few months. For this visit, the location was a lot more noisy. The room appeared to be a bit dated than before. Also, you need to invest in quieter cleaning carts. Your staff is way too loud during the early morning (...while cleaning the vacated rooms).

Researched hotels based on amenities as we were staying for a 7 day vacation. Not as advertised! Microwave - none Two pools/hot tub - one closed (the one closest to our room, green constriction barrier surround On site restaurant Treehouse Restaurant - closed (empty and for lease) Bar/lounge - none Room service - none Fitness room - none although you could use the gym down the street apparently. “All guest rooms boast private decks or balconies that overlook the hotels gardens or pools” - we were given a room with balcony facing parking lot. We moved as per request. Free breakfast - none however we were notified of that after we booked. Paid higher rate to get in renovated room because we wanted a nice vacation, so disappointed. We have stayed several times at the Best Western Plus on Bath St. but it was booked for our dates so thought this location would be comparable, it was not. Paid a higher price than advertised for same dates which I’m sure was changed due to lack of amenities, unfortunately we did not get the lower rates booking through Expedia.

This is a great hotel to stay at. The property was very big so there is a lot of parking. The rooms are clean and I loved that my room had a glass sliding door that lead to a courtyard where the pool was. The breakfast room was under construction but the clerk gave us great recommendations to eat. Overall, the was a great hotel and I would definitely come back.

The location was fine. Very close to downtown the mission, the beaches, shops, restaurants. My biggest issue was the water pressure.third world counties probably have better water pressure than we did in our room. I am not even exaggerating when I say my grandmother in Mexico has better water pressure in the rancho. We had to use a bucket to shower. Super inconvenient for this heat.
