not bad for a hundred bucks.
Full on suite with kitchen thingy and couches.
I got rid of one star because their internet service all of the sudden said "due to suspicious activity we are slowing your connection to 56k!"
BOOOOOOOO

almost back to LA! -
Review from Mel D.
La Palma, CA
This location is a SpringHill Suites by Marriott hotel, and no longer an Amerisuites hotel. We decided on this place after realizing that the Residence Inn we had reserved didn't have inside hallways, and we wanted to be able to easily go back-and-forth between ours and my parents' rooms rather than toughing it through the cold, wintry Flagstaff weather to get between rooms.
What do I think? All show, no go. Beauty, no brains. Good aesthetics, poor ergonomics.
Yeah, it's beautiful. Modern deco. Contemporary furniture. Nice use of lighting. Clean, cool pastel colors. Full height glass door showers. Frosted glass sliding doors. Spacious walk-in closet. But look beyond all this and you'll find:
1. The plumbing is bad.
First flush and the toilet overfilled causing my parents to move to another room. The maintenance dude who came to check out the problem said it was indeed a common problem because the building's plumbing was never upgraded during the renovation. He told us of, we saw, and overheard from other guests of several other rooms with this problem. The maintenance dude even commented that my dad was the only guest sane enough to turn off the supply line to the toilet so it didn't continue to flood the room.
2. The glass frosted door to the restroom doesn't block light at night.
This is a prob because we like to keep the light on at night so the kiddos can see their way to the bathroom. Instead of blocking light, the glass frosted door actually helps to disperse light throughout the room. Mickey Mouse solution: we used one of the bedside LED reading lights pointed at the bathroom to light the way.
3. The sliding door's interior handle will smash your fingers.
Yes, I found out the hard way as this happened to me in the middle of the night. Closed the sliding door behind me to find that the interior handle leaves only about 1/8th inch to the wall! WTF?!?
4. You can't turn on the shower without getting wet.
"Dad, could you help me turn on the shower?" Ok, no problem. Wait, no this is a problem. The shower head's on the wrong side. Or the door's on the wrong side. Well, either way, you're gonna get wet b/c you have to enter the shower to turn it on. You could point the shower head away, then turn it on, but my kids are too short to point it back. So expect to get wet!
5. Difficult to get luggage to the walk-in closet.
Our room had two queen beds and we brought a few bags and a larger size luggage on this trip. Unfortunately the distance between the bed and the TV stand is about 12 inches! So forget about rolling it to the walk-in closet. You gotta carry it over the bed to get it in.
6. Slow internet.
Uhh.....this is a problem. And the VPN connection to my company's intranet/email didn't work for me either.
7. I could go on...
Anyway, we booked 3 nights and despite these probs decided to remain there the remaining 2 nights b/c we had already settled in and we didn't want to move our party. The inconveniences almost didn't outweigh the niceties because of the breakfast spread, the politeness of the hotel staff, and the overall fun we had in Flagstaff. But if I had to choose again, I'd look elsewhere.
