Minimum check-in age vs. family access
The hotel requires the guest who checks in to be at least 21 years old and to present a valid photo ID at check-in. This is a standard identity/authorization policy and does not mean children are restricted from staying.
Families with children may book rooms as long as an adult (21+) completes check-in. Late arrivals after midnight and late check-out requests are subject to availability and may incur a fee.
- Check-in starts at 4:00 PM; check-out is 11:00 AM.
- Check-in is available from 4:00 PM until midnight (after-midnight arrivals handled case-by-case).
- A valid credit card and government-issued photo ID are required at check-in.
