Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was conveniently located near the outlet and surrounded by plenty of restaurants, offering descent accommodations. The external environment had an unpleasant smell which was a downside, but overall, the hotel had a nice setting close to major attractions.
My stay at the hotel was truly enjoyable. I loved the good sized balcony that allowed me to soak up the great weather, but the space was a bit tight for all the guests. The large TV and view of the pool from my second-floor room made the experience very relaxing and comfortable. I particularly enjoyed the fantastic coffee during my stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms, despite being loud in the early morning, offered a secure balcony overlooking the parking lot and surrounding landscape. Unfortunately, they were not ready on arrival, and there was a slight sewer-like smell. The service was top-notch, with a friendly and respectful staff, though the noise from cleaning nearby rooms was a bit bothersome. The location was convenient, close to outlets and a variety of restaurants, making it a place I would return to, but finding it at night was a challenge. The dining experience was a pleasant surprise with a well-stocked breakfast, but it was not available or near Gilroy. The hotel facilities were decent but could be improved. Overall, a somewhat enjoyable stay with its ups and downs.
