Great location, outdoor pool was nice and surprisingly warm for late December. Bar and breakfast was good. It was a great meeting location for us meeting our friends.
The hotel had a nice bar/restaurant downstairs. It was very clean and the staff was friendly. The rooms are updated and clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. But be aware, there's no self parking and parking is $50/night.
No Hotel Parking - Only $50 per day Valet available. Advertised 5 min, but really averaged 10-20 minutes.
Room was not ready upon arrival even though we were 1 hour late. Bar Staff was exceptional!

Liked: Staff & service
Room was not that clean.
Check-in staff were terrific
Awesome staff, very kind and helpful. Nice water view, the bed was super comfortable and the workout space had chilled wet and dry towels. The wet towels were eucalyptus scented - perfect! The textured walls and bathroom tile was dated, but that can be overlooked considering everything else was on point. Thanks for a relaxing stay!

Beautiful Property, great location. Every staff person was very attentive and gracious.
Great location. We were able to walk to the Benchmark arena. Room was comfortable. The restaurant in the hotel didn't have great food but the staff were great.

Liked: Cleanliness
Bed was very comfortable and the room was clean. It's an old hotel so walls are thin, you could hear showers running very loudly late at night making it difficult to sleep. The 'restaurant ' seems like an afterthought positioned off the lobby as if it's in a holding pattern for something better to come. The windows in the restaurant were filthy. We chose our lodging based on location and pet friendly. Location was great. Although i didn't ask, nowhere was it mentioned that having a pet added $50 per night to the stay. With all the additional fees (not including restaurant) our $219 per night room exceeded $800 for 2 nights.
