Hair in shower and on floor by toilet. Couldn't turn off light by TV, called front desk, they hung up on me. Called again, she refused to answer. Slept with a towel over my eyes, problem solved. Bed comfortable, area safe. Not a terrible stay.

Very impressed with the overall of the room, very clean, comfortable and very modern. Very good location to stay if going to the Rainbow Ryders. The proximity is incredible, only 5 mins walk.Traveled to enjoy a night before my activity in the hot air balloon. The international breakfast was very good with many choices. Staff very knowledgeable and friendly.

It was a little pricey for that type of property. I would say it should’ve been 1/3 the price for that place! Plus they overcharged my card by $50 of what I was quoted. The front desk guy was not a friendly person, he didn’t even tell me which direction the room/elevators were. I hope they give me my refund!

Stayed 2 nights, we where there for a soccer tournament. Clean rooms and friendly staff. BUT, on the last day of our stay there was no breakfast offered. Upsetting when you have a long day at the tournament ahead and no breakfast. Many families and kids upset.
