Nice hotel in a great location! Very clean hotel with friendly staff in a convenient location. Within walking distance there are a ton of food places, Starbucks and an Albertsons. Super nice bar in the hotel with very friendly staff. Rooms are updated and very clean. Only thing that needs improvement is their hot tub. It was barely even warm. Will definitely stay here again when we are in town.

Check in was fast. We were placed on the 3rd floor. At night after checking in to our room, I could not sleep the whole night since the room was smelling food. It seems like chefs were preparing food for the next day. At 2:30am I tried to call the lobby for them to transfer me to another room, but the room phone was not working. Then I had no choice but to open the glass door and freeze since temperatures were around 40*. I had a terrible night and ended up becoming sick from the cold. In the morning, I went to check out and expressed my concerns with the staff, her response was "sorry you felt that way, here is your bill"! WOW! Disgusting customer service! Never ever staying at this hotel. NEVER!
