Fantastic location! The front desk service was just okay, not very friendly and we had to ask both times we used the pool for towels as they weren’t replenished in the pool area.

Location was perfect, space in too was huge and perfect with kids. Only complaint was not clean. My son even found someone’s pills on the floor of his room so I would definitely do a scan of your room if you have kids with you. If the did a better job cleaning the rooms I would have given 5 stars

Room was not ready until 40min after check in. Rooms are very run down and nothing like pictured online. Bathroom had dirty fingerprints all over ceiling and carpet was sticky to walk on. Another guest in front of me was complaining about exact same issues. No towels at all in pool and front desk seemed annoyed when I asked for some. Good location and that was it. Would not stay in again.

Our two bedroom condo was very spacious for our family of 7 with high ceilings and exposed brick. Some updates would be nice as otherwise it’s very bland with honey oak and artificial plants. Full kitchen, 2nd bathroom and living room area that had a large jacuzzi in the corner which we thought to be quite strange placement. Large private master bedroom with comfortable bed and its own bathroom. The other room has two double beds that are comfortable. However, the pullout couch was not a suitable sleeping option as it is basically springs wrapped in cloth. Same goes for the rollaway bed. We made it work by piling blankets over the mattress and sleeping on top of them. At least it was only one night... It was by far the best value option in the canal park area for any suite that sleeps more than 4 with a kitchen. It also has a good warm breakfast included and free parking.
