Positive Reviews
positive:
Exceptionally comfortable beds
While there were one or two complaints, the vast majority of guests seemed to find the beds exceptionally comfortable. So much so that they wondered whether the mattress would fit into their suitcase so they could smuggle it out and use in at home.
positive:
Coffee and cookies at reception
It seems that the hotel has free coffee and cookies at reception most of the day, and certainly for arriving guests. This kind gesture really seemed to go a long way with the guests, who were very happy to be able to pick up a quick snack and hot beverage when passing by.
positive:
Pretty decent breakfast
While it was only a simple continental breakfast, it seems to have been a hit with many guests, who liked the convenience of being able to grab a quick meal downstairs at their hotel before heading out to face the day.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Some noise from the street and highway outside
This was perhaps the most common, and most serious, compliant. A great many guests reported that, when in their rooms, they could clearly hear the sound of cars passing by, both on the street outside and the I-5. It was quite a significant problem for light sleepers.
negative:
Difficult to find initially
While guests conceded that the directions were fairly straightforward, several said that in reality they were a bit harder to follow, with several guests getting lost in the short distance between the highway exit and the hotel.
negative:
Dogs barking
The hotel maintains and exceptionally pet-friendly environment. Pet owners loved this, of course, but others were not so impressed with the barking that even well-behaved dogs sometimes get up to, especially when it was early in the morning.
