I can not say enough good things about this place! It is beautiful and inviting. The staff was wonderful and went above and beyond to help us with every question or just suggesting areas to visit while we are here. If you get the chance to work with Zak at the desk, you would not be disappointed, he was friendly and very down to earth and helped us set up everything. The room was absolutely perfect and the black out curtains are definitely a big plus. Best nights sleep away from home. Will for sure be coming back!

The property was overall pretty nice but not quite the boutique hotel vibe I was expecting. Kind of dark and a little maintenance needed. Wallpaper peeling, rugs looked a little worn. But the biggest problem was the car noise outside the room. Our room was right in front of a big metal plate that made a loud banging every time a car (or truck) drove over it. Not good sound proofing on the windows. When I told them about it the next morning, they were like oh, I'll have to look at that. For the price, it was just okay.

Loved the aesthetic of this place. Felt so fancy. The espresso coffee was delicious. The continental breakfast was even top notch. Bed was extremely comfortable for my tired nurse back. Staff was friendly. Walkable distance to Wells Fargo arena and many restaurants nearby!
