Stayed here in October for 4 nights. I was skeptical at first because it seems like it's in a bad neighborhood. The Lobby is REALLY nicely decorated. The hotel is split into small groups of buildings each centered around a different courtyard or pool. Our room overlooked the pool area. It was quieter than i thought. The rooms open up directly to the outside, no interior halls. No rooms face the street. The King bed was huge and the room itself was quite large. My only negative thing is that TWO electrical transformers blew up at 2:15 am and went without power, no AC, lights, nothing until sometime the next day. Needless to say, that was quite a startling wake up call in the middle of the night. The staff did the best they could. In the lobby the next morning, I heard another guest say she read TripAdvisor reviews of the hotel and read it had prior electrical issues.
The rooms were clean but housekeeping never replenished the shampoo/conditioner and lotion each day which got a bit annoying.
