- AAfsana Tabibi30/04/2024Luxurious stay ! Highly recommend Luxurious stay ! Highly recommendMy husband and I stayed here on our way to the West coast. We stayed in the Deluxe King Jacuzzi Suite, and it was luxurious! I absolutely loved the room, especially the rain shower and jet tub. The room was clean, and the bed was really comfortable. The building is quite deceiving because it doesn't look very appealing from the outside, but it is really nice and I would highly recommend staying here.My husband and I stayed here on our way to the West coast.
