Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We were not notified that the elevator was not working, we got booked on the third floor even though I asked nicely to the front desk staff if she could move us to ground floor and she said she could not that if we wanted to leave we can look for another hotel, I think that was extremely rude and unprofessional, the front desk staff was just live-less and somewhat seem robotic, we had traveled 8 hours from Arizona to be received that way with no form of consideration to our needs she just shrugged it off. A little more of training and empathy that is what they need. The breakfast staff saved the day, I will have to say the ladies there were so nice to everyone always smiling and eager to help in whatever anyone needed.

Everything was excellent except that I received one day before of my stay an email saying that the elevator didn't work, so we made a lot exercise those days, we were in the third floor. The staff was always very friendly, the breakfast was great, the rooms comfortable and clean, the pool was heated it was a great plus. The hotel had an excellent location, we were close of everything we made.

Nice hotel and close to SeaWorld

Hotel was clean and quiet .even though it was right next to the freeway on ramp. Pool was warm and was in just the right location for SeaWorld.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The furniture was bad shape, sofa was torn and discolored. And for some weird reason they had an inch of gap under the door to my room, so that I could hear everything going on in the hotel. Having my room right next to the drain didn't help either. Not to mention the big aircon unit INSIDE the room. Oh and the elevators were no working but my room was only on the first floor, so can't really complain. Although the property itself was actually decent, but the neighborhood was definitely sketchy.
