CHECKIN & LOCATION -- Empathetic staff & fast checkin!

The lobby is uniquely decorated with a mix of old & new design patterns. Comfortable & visually engaging.

Convenient parking was just steps from our door!

Getting around was a little tricky & the scale of their maps is challenging, but eventually we acclimated.

ROOM (walkthrough) -- Looked clean & FELT clean.

The room was nice & spacious with plenty of storage for all of our stuff.

Great aromas were in the air, although the pine/wood scent was overwhelming to my companion.

AC system was frustrating due to its location & its performance.

Gorgeous aesthetic with functional windows, strong lighting, & ample seating options.

BED -- A+ in every category.

Good sheets. ✅

Good pillows ✅

Good mattress ✅

Good sleep.

BATH -- Medium sized bathroom, which gets very hot due to the light choice & ventilation performance. This can be a pro/con depending on your preference.

Shower experience wasn't as strong as other amenities, yet still a good value. The small shower space still delivers on good pressure & temps.

Tarocco toiletries & bath products were provided along with a good brand of towels.

FOOD & DRINK -- Restaurant on site offer SUPERB in-room dining--pricey ($18-41) but worth it, except the horchata!

Mini-fridges were stocked with decent mixers & complementary Ghirardelli's chocolate in-room.

Pepsi vending scattered throughout the property along with ice machines.

TV & ENTERTAINMENT -- Mounted television with good programming (direct TV) & premium features, like a Netflix integration.

Around the property are ducks, koi, & thought-provoking statues. Walking around the property is such a calming experience. Something for guests of all ages.
