Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Beautiful property in a central location with efficient and courteous staff. I didn't care for the valet-only parking. The valets themselves were hard-working and efficient, but it winds up being quite spendy to have a car with you. This could encourage some guests to consider using public transportation, which would be more eco-friendly, however. Along those lines, management might consider adding container recycling receptacles on-property.

Disappointed in not doing the happy hour and the bikes were in bad shape and short supply from our first visit. Armondo was great and valet staff was all great. It was our second visit and we were pleased.

3/5 Okay

Traveled with family
Liked: Staff & service
The location and the staff make this a good choice. Each member of the staff from the front desk to valet parkers were super warm and helpful. The live music outside and multiple sitting areas with fire pits were nice. However the condition of the room and the frequent noise all night and early morning did not warrant such a high price. The room was not really updated, walls were thin so it was hard to get a decent night’s sleep because you could hear neighbors in the room next door and others simply walking past outside. I’ve stayed here before and the price per room was much more in line with what you got.

Great location. Comfortable room, but floor was a little "dusty". Staff was super nice. When we needed extra towels, etc, they brought them right away. Loved the tables outside, and enjoyed the fire pits in the evenings. We'd stay there again.
