Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Everything was great but our room was interesting. Our heater was broken, so the room was crazy hot and then we would lower it for the ac to run and then it would reset to heat. So we ended up leaving it but would have to slowly lower the ac and then be cold all night. I did t bother the front desk about it because we had plans to be out of the room and then I didn’t want to wait and deal or move rooms either.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
First, the staff was not helpful. The check in was easy but they did not explain where our room was or how to get there. They didn’t describe or help with any amenities. And, they checked us in to a room that was still in the process of being cleaned, so we had to stand outside the room and wait with our luggage. Once inside, we had very few towels and no bedding for the pull out where our child was to sleep. Secondly, they do not have a shuttle, for anything. We flew in to SD for a cruise and the hotel could not assist with transportation from the airport or to the cruise port. We were told there was public transportation from the airport that would drop us off a block away and we could walk to the port the next day. Four suitcases, three people (one is 4 at the time of this post), two carryons… and a partridge in a pear tree, to walk 10 or so city blocks or squeeze on a bus. No thanks. They wouldn’t even call us a cab. I expect better service when you pay for a suite. We got motel service from this hotel. Last, I don’t know why everywhere to eat closed at 2pm or didn’t open until 5pm, but options in walking distance to the hotel were limited. This is not the fault of the hotel, but still adds to our experience during the stay. Also, the elevator doors are not wide enough for the bellman cart. We had to rearrange our luggage twice to make it fit on the elevator with us.

There is a 50.00 charge for having a dog in your room, but there is NO area anywhere around the hotel for a pet relief area. Why advertise you are a pet friendly hotel when you don’t have a pet relief area.
