Sorry, this hotel should not be rated a 9
The high review rating number, presumably from real people that stayed there, led us to stay here. It should be more like a 7, not a 9. It is not horrible, but we would not return. It is more of a motel than an inn.

Would happily stay here again
This hotel was very clean and check in was quick and friendly. We liked how they offered self serve draft beer and wine in the lobby and the courtyard pool and lounge area allowed for plenty of spots to sit down and enjoy our drinks. The room was clean and comfortable and there were plenty of shopping and dining options nearby.

Roach In The Bed
There was a roach crawling on the empty bed. The attendant was very apologetic about it. But would reimburse me my money for the nights paid for because it was booked there a third party.
Of course, I was moved to a different room. If not for that I would have rated them higher. If there is one roach there are more somewhere.
I should be reimbursed for this stay by Hotels.com.
