Summary: Sherrie at the front desk was great, but house keeping was not. They were as loud as could be first thing in morning and proud of it, even when I said something to them. Parking was also very confusing with all the renovations taking place.
James Aug 28, 2025 04:18:02 AM
Summary: First time back since they started the renovations (which are still going on). It's beautiful! Love the new decor and the bed was amazingly comfortable. There were a couple of "new" things in the room that needed attention and they took care of everything. The drinks at the bar are still amazing as is the bartender.
Richard Aug 25, 2025 08:50:00 AM
Summary: Front desk seemed a bit robotic and offended by our questions at check-in.
Aug 25, 2025 01:02:49 AM
Summary: Stay was good, room was clean and very nice. Bed and pillows were very comfortable. The construction worried me, but we did not have any issues with this during the trip. I would love to have a buffet breakfast included with the stay and was not a big fan of the "oak" smelling soaps. Other than this, it was a great place to stay.
Aug 24, 2025 01:00:37 AM
Summary: Property is currently under renovation. Difficult to find your way around and front desk/lobby area is temporary
Bob Aug 23, 2025 07:22:06 PM
Summary: Nice place.. off the main strip. Love the use of shuttle bus service.. would stay again.
Katherine Aug 19, 2025 09:45:25 AM
Summary: Room was only cleaned after first night. Both subsequent days, the bed wasn’t made, the coffee mugs and water glasses weren’t cleaned/replaced, but they did give me fresh towels each day.
Jessica Aug 18, 2025 12:36:46 AM
Summary: the hotel is updated and looks modern and very clean. very impressive
Darren Aug 17, 2025 04:56:09 AM
Summary: We stayed for my son’s graduation. The room was big enough for 4 people. The bed was comfortable and bathroom was clean.
Aug 9, 2025 09:14:24 AM
Summary: I really couldnt believe qhen i showed up and asked where i could buy bottles of water for the room, and they said "walmart or the bar has mini bittles for $3). For some reason i was gofted a coupon for a drink in the bar, but you dont sell water fkr the rooms of peoples dogs.. weird priorities.. all they could say was "we dont have a gift shop anymore". My response, "this is bad hospitality and customer service.." i stay in 4-6 hotels a week across the country.. a good hotel is literally hard to find anymore.. there is not attention to the guests at all.. if a guest needed to buy deodorant or a toothbrush, no luck.. and nobody could really tell me other than "i think theres a walmart somewhere "
