    It was okay stay! not reasonable for the money

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    I got the suite with the balcony view and boy was it tiny. Save your money and get a regular room. Otherwise pretty decent and it is in a very good location. Views from this location aren’t that great either especially at the price point but overall not too bad.

    Awesome location if you’re going to Petco for a concert or ball game and so many fun things near by.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    The building is beautiful and relaxing with its old world charm. The bar is welcoming and the charcuterie amazing. The people were helpful and not stuffy.

    Gorgeous property

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Room was really nice—big, comfy beds, fireplace! Although it was the middle of the summer, we didn’t get a chance to use it, but it was a really cool feature! One thing I wasn’t thrilled with was how few wait staff there were at the restaurant— we were there for a concert, and there were a lot of people that wanted to eat early, and I felt that the wait was a little bit long. Also, the bar closed early! Lots of people from the concert wanted to grab a drink, and the bar was closed!

    Clean room. Friendly Staff. Fireplace in room was great.

    It’s $62 for over night parking at the hotel fyi. But if you park at the 6th and parkade parking structure it’s $1 an hour so it’s 25 per day. Plan for parking!!

    Great location

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Great stay for the Noah Kahan concert. The sweet lady at the front desk upgraded us to a premium suite because it was my wife’s birthday. We had a wonderful time!

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    In the center of town, walking distance to restaurants and ice cream parlors. The air conditioner and the ceiling fans in the room were great. Also I loved the small kitchette in the room. It made making my coffee in the morning easy. Plus the small refrigerator was great for storing our items that needed to be cold. When we arrived our keys (card type, we had two) did not work. I went down to the check in desk and had the receptionist reprogram my card and it did not work again. Someone came up with me and used their master key card and it work. They sent up maintence to reprogram card reader lock and I did not have any problems after that. Actually I did like how quickly they solved my problem. The hotel hallways seemed to be a little warm. It was hotter and more humid than normal so that probably had a lot to do with it.
