I would not recommend this property. Begin with driving into the hotel driveway: There are no wayfinding signs indicating where to park. One can see cars parked in a parking area behind the hotel, but the two 3-story motel-like buildings with outside entrances that looked like apartments, and the parking appears to be for residents of these buildings. There was no signage to identify what the buildings were. Only later did we learn otherwise. Next, entering the hotel lobby with our luggage, the clerk didn't bother to acknowledge our presence. She did not welcome us to the hotel or otherwise show any interest in our presence. Finally, she said in very soft voice, "Checking in?" She gave us a form to fill out about our car. The form required us to list the model, color, and year. When I asked her why there isn't the only question all other properties ask, the vehicle's license number, she just kind of shrugged. Finally, she gave us our key cards and told us that our room was in the building next door, behind where we were. We were confused and asked her to explain. She said again that our room was on the third floor of a building behind us. We had to leave the hotel and walk outside (in the rain) to our room. Still not sure we understood, she asked us if we would like a room in "this building?" "Yes, that would be appreciated," I said. She then did some switching around and gave us new key cards to a room on the 7th (top) floor. The room was a huge disappointment. The mattress was old and lumpy. The bathroom, slightly larger than a phone booth, had mold where the tile met the bathtub, and there was some weird, "S"-shaped plastic contraption with a shower head on it that was permanently fixed in place and aimed at the far tile wall. The ONLY positive thing I can say about this property is the TWIGS restaurant, which is fabulous. I suspect TWIGS leases its space.
