Great and responsive service
We stay in the family suite with 3 beds over the weekend. It was a pleasant stay. The staffs were really friendly and responsive. The room was clean. The bed was not as comfortable as I liked because it was too firm for me. Overall it was a great place to stay for the price. Best of all was after we have made it home and realized that my boys have left some of their things behind. I called and talked to the manager on duty and she verified that my items were there. She guided me on how to email a prepaid postage label to them and my items were sent back the next day. Thank you so much!!!

Beds are ridiculously loud & uncomfortable. There’s squeaking metal on metal anytime someone moves. The flooring is cheap laminate so if you walk it sounding like stomping. Nice coffee set up with Keurig pods & condiments but no coffee maker.

Traffice noise and help from front desk
The room was clean and beds were comfy. The shower was a bit tight. Lots of traffice noise in our room, didnt work well for a light sleeper like me. work i realised i forgot the license at the front desk after 4 days since returning to SF and had to call them to check & organise for a self addressed parcel to get it picked up, would have been nice if they had reminded me during checkout or called after.

5 stars
Our stay was great. The bedding was very nice. The towels as well, especially the washcloths. They were very nice. I did ask for extra pillows but not available. So I used the pool towels to add volume. Also the indoor pool was great as well . Overall our stay was amazing. Close to nice restaurants and of course the aquarium. Great price.

Family room - just right!
I stayed in the 3 bed family room with my daughter and 3 grandsons. Big room with a big bathroom. It is clean and modern. Great location, near a grocery store, liquor store and a few restaurants. The heated pool is inside a pergola type structure, protected and private. Friendly office staff. I would stay here again.
