No AC
The AC would not work for me. When I touched the buttons, nothing would happen. Fortunately it was a cool night, so I opened the window and cooled the room down. I had to close the window around 1am because of noise. I mentioned it when I was checking out and they said did I look for a thermostat ? No, I did not. It was a typical AC unit that you see in many hotels where the controls are at the AC Unit. If it had a thermostat, they should put a note on the AC telling you that. I included a picture. has anyone ever seen one of these with a separate thermostat on the wall ? I haven't

I did not like that I was charged $25/dog as tge place was advertised as being pet friendly. There were also no real areas to walk dogs as most of the grass are immediately outside of someone's room, or the edge of a building. The grounds seem nice, and it's cool that it's rightbacriss from the arena. But for a hotel not to offer breakfast on top of having to provideba cresit card for incidentals when there's no incidentals to be had is disappointing.

Smelly and unsafe sliding door!
Hotel was quite smelly as you entered the hallway entrance. Room thankfully didnt smell and was clean. The patio door was unlocked when we arrived and was very hard to lock and felt very unsafe!

Nothing wrong with the property, I enjoyed my stay. The area around though is riddled with the homeless, but there are gates all around so they cant wander in.

If you have a family or simply want to stay in a safe and calm location, Don’t stay here! I traveled with my with and child just to find guys getting drunk in the front door of the rooms and urinating in public. Concern was brought up to the front desk by multiple guests and front desk said he couldn’t do anything about it. I had to pick up and get another hotel after only being there for only 3 hours and when asked for a refund they denied it. Don’t stay here at all
