We're truly sorry to hear about your experience here. Your feedback is crucial, and we take it seriously. The property has not had microwaves nor phones in rooms for several years, however our staff should have addressed this with you at check in and assisted you with how to contact the desk. We thank you for your time and your feedback.

I enjoyed my stay because the checkin and out, pool, housekeeping, functionality was great. There was a huge dance party going on at the pool on a Sunday night, which surprised me. I would have bought earplugs. And the dining was less than expected. I'd recommend eating dinner elsewhere, but overall it just fine. I liked it. I do recommend it. Oh...the pillo

So, it is a cannabis hotel. There are dedicated areas for it and rooms for it. There are areas in the halls that wreak. I did not know this will booking and was not okay with it but I couldn't find another room that wouldn't cost an absolute fortune due to a basketball thing happening over the weekend I was there. It is in the ghetto. There were a number of things that were broken in my room- the shower handle, the safety bar, several lights, the remote for the air conditioner. It wasn't the cleanest. The staff were very nice.

Read the reviews before booking. I made the mistake of booking based on price and found out that it was a 21 only hotel. They have bands playing on a nightly basis in their pool area and it was pretty loud so if you want a good night's sleep, this is not the place. If you like to party, this is the spot. They do end around 10pm however, you still have weird people lurking around. Our first night was tolerable due to the staff being very nice. However, there was a strange guy walking around, just staring at people and it was uncomfortable. The second night, one staff member was extremely rude and when I explained to him that we didn't have issues with staff the night before and the rules of the hotel. In the middle of the night, there was a woman screaming and it went on for hours before it went silent... this place is weird!! If you love to smoke pot, they have a private smoking area for you - I'm guessing that's the reason they have a resort fee? This place made no sense to me and I will never be booking here again.

If you're thinking about staying here, don't. There are no phones in the units so forget about service. Blow dryer was broken, and no hot water. There was also no privacy screen on the window. You're only option is pull the blinds and you'll have a dark room.

Reading reviews from Google & Expedia, I almost cancelled my reservation. I’m glad I didn’t. We’re not drinkers, we do smoke cannabis. This hotel offers cannabis rooms so we’ve wanted to check it out. The room was clean. The bed was pretty comfy. The 2 room Suite was set up comfortably. Cannabis lounge - reminded me of an rec room, wasn’t impressed. Rooftop lounge- we didn’t see it as we were not digging the live music that was being played up there. Pool & Hot-tub looks really fun. Overall, we enjoyed just having a place we could get away, relax and smoke weed in our room.
