It was a beautiful property. We had a nice, stylish room. Pool was gorgeous, too. Really wish they would’ve provided literally any free bee like coffee or two water bottles…. It was upsetting that everything was so pricy for the price we paid.

Centrally located retro hotel is worth a stay
It was a great experience to stay in this cool retro hotel in downtown. Not far from freeway, airport and Old Town. Food was good, service was friendly. In room bottled water is a bit pricey tho.

Nice hotel! Loved the pool and outdoor area. Service was great! The rooms are decorated so nicely. The valet guys at the front door are super polite and helpful. I wasn’t a fan of the food at the restaurant.
