Spectacular

Best hotel I’ve ever stayed at, hands down. Just check it out. Most amazing staff, amazing music, good was spectacular, as well as the drinks! The room was so cool and the bed was extremely comfortable! The pillows were unbelievably comfortably I almost wish they sold them haha! They provide ear buds in case of noise disturbances before/during bedtime. Lots of wonderful amenities as well! Beautiful art and architecture! The list goes on and on.

Historic gem gets a chic update

This place is beautiful. So vibrant and fun. The bowling alley/bar was amazing. The pool is mezmerizing. It's bones are old, so the walls are thin. Earplugs are already in the room. The only room for improvement is the pillows which didn't have any body, but that's a small complaint. Big picture is this place is awesome and so worth checking out.

Loved it!

From check in to check out the staff was so kind and helpful. The cocktails and food were awesome and they were so accommodating to any dietary restrictions. The rooms are large and beautiful. No detail was spared throughout the entire hotel. My only dislike was a rain shower head but I know I’m in the minority however, the water pressure was great! I visited with my husband and 13 yo son and everyone loved it. I look forward to going back!

Insane

Great hotel, such a fun experience to stay there. Only complaint is no room service?? And the water gets hot FAST. But besides that. Insane hotel. We loved staying there. We barely left the hotel all weekend because there is so much to do! Worth all the money.

Top tier stay!

We stayed to commemorate an anniversary and received top notch service and a lovely room despite the hotel staff being exceedingly busy for the holidays.

Fun hotel, super vibe!

Great stay, wonderful vibe. Only critique is that they are kind of short staffed and cannot make up rooms every day. This seems common in Southern California these days, maybe other place too.
