We were the only one being told that the check out would be 11 oclock despite our clear written time of 12 pm. Whenn we indicated that she was very nasty about it. Also when stating the rules, she was very intimidating. We didn't see this treatment with other customers while waiting. We really believe thisvwas a result of us being minarity group. The other receptionist was very nice and even told Mina in spanish that check out was 12\. Other staff members were nice. ##### Helga Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2026 ### 6/10 Okay #### Erendira Sep 18, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Great location but bad service The location was great for this hotel.
