Summary: Stayed for 1 night. Great communication with the office. They asked when I would arrive and they left the key in a lockbox. The office closes at 5pm, but they are available via text. Room was nice and cozy. Popcorn, coffee, hot cocoa, bottled water, soap, shampoo, conditioner, makeup wipes, and shower caps available in the room. Bathroom is compact, but everything works great. We stayed in the winter so it got a little cold at night. Room has a heater/AC wall unit. Remote was missing, but staff brought us a replacement even though it was 9pm. Ate at Zorros a block away. 10% off coupon in the room, but I forgot to use it. Loud freeway noise, but they give you earplugs. The walls are thin and I could hear the people in the room next door talking. Overall, great stay!
