Stayed here for just one night, but was impressed by the room, staff, and convenience. Breakfast staff and options great. The sleeping room is laid/planned out well. People were enjoying the pool. We got dinner from the food trucks outside. I got the fish and chips - it was plentiful and yummy!

I had a fantastic month long stay here. The food trucks are a great way to eat cheap(er) local food, and the bar was always packed with friendly people. Shoutout to Dal the bartender for making my stay here memorable. Trivia night was fun too.

I enjoyed coming to the Residence Inn bar on the lower level. Dal, the bartender is very experienced in making different types of drinks, he also a down to earth person, that likes to communicate with you. He has a very good memory also. He knows the guests in the hotel and also the type of drinks they had before at his bar. That's beyond the customer service. Such a friendly kinda guy, that makes you feel at ease, after long day. Keep up the outstanding customer service. I'll for sure to back soon.

I've been staying here for over a month and the staff is always helpful, friendly and genuinely happy and fun to be around. They go out of their way to make you feel at home and work hard to have a clean, safe, and fun environment. Everyone from the janitors, housekeeping, bartenders, room cleaners, front desk hospitality have been amazing. They have a real sense of helping locals with their food truck businesses to succeed and welcome them the feed their guests. Thanks for an amazing experience!

So far so great. We had a warm welcome, and great initial service. Greats smiles, and attitudes. The grounds were meticulously maintained as were the halls, common spaces, and rooms. The complimentary breakfast is above average in comparison to other hotels, keep in mind it’s not a 5 star ritz, and the breakfast is buffet style, but WAY better than the continentals elsewhere. Location is good, not great. Don’t expect a beach front resort, BUT if you are here for a long time and you’re traveling, this is the best place to be. Everything is nearby and it is INCREDIBLY convenient. Would definitely come again.
