    Negative Reviews

    negative:

    Might be a bit noisy

    The freeway is not far from the hotel and some guests had noise complaints due to the proximity. It is also depending what kind of room you get. You might want to ask for a room that faces in another direction, or pack some earplugs.

    negative:

    Water might have a color to it

    Some guests were surprised by the cloudy or slightly brown water. The hotel draws their water from a natural source on property that is monitored by the authorities for quality, and it can, depending on the time of the year and dryness, have more or less minerals in it which cloud the water. If this is a problem for you you might not want to stay here.

    negative:

    Wi-Fi can be wobbly

    The Wi-Fi did not work consistently for some guests. They had trouble connecting or the connection was dropped often.
