This was a wonderful place to stay. All the employees were great and it’s a very nice hotel. We only had one complaint— what is up with the cheap pillows? We had a king size bed that had 4 toddler size pillows. They were not even standard size, and they were very wimpy. I have NEVER stayed anywhere that had pillows that terrible and small.

Nice night downtown.

It was a comfortable bed and very clean room. Hotel staff were very friendly. Hotel has plenty of amenities and nice seating lobbies. Cloud 9 rooftop bar is a place I go to often and it never disappoints.

The hotel was very accommodating & not pricey at all! We loved the availability and the views. The hotel setup was gorgeous. Super comfortable bed! The whole suite was extremely clean! They also offer two free drinks per visitor! We didn’t use due to scheduling issues on our own part, but such a nice gesture. The valley parking was a huge bonus! Staff was extremely friendly!
