Property showing "wear and tear". Front desk is not always staffed and the front doors do not open until a certain time === if you go outside and want to get back into the lobby, good luck! Also, they don't make it clear that you should not turn in your room key if your car is in the garage (when checking out) as you won't get out of the parking garage. Probably wouldn't stay there again.

Check in was super easy and parking is just across the street. The only thing I would change is our room didn’t have a microwave.

The hotel was nice and in a convenient location. Overall, the hotel is in decent shape, though the rooms could use a bit of an update. Just normal wear and tear. Nothing to be concerned about. Most of the places nearby close early so late night options are few. You can access the Skywalk from the second floor which was nice. Overall, a nice stay.

The front desk staff and morning cook were great and very helpful. Hotel is a little dated and could use a facelift but overall well kept and clean.

This was my second stay here, I enjoyed it. The rooms are nice and spacious, parking is across the street for and additional $18. It was an easy walk to Wells Fargo Arena for a concert! I'll stay here again for sure!

Friendly staff. Nice room. Enjoyable breakfast. Only downfalls were that the water in the shower didn't get too warm. Warm enough, but could have been warmer. Otherwise, great stay.

Just sent a month traveling with my wife around country. My wife has mobility issues. This was the best hotel for her. The keys were spacious room for her to maneuver her cart and low bed height, she has short legs and a bum shoulder. Front deak and hospitality people were amazing and super helpful.

The only thing I didn’t like is it took forever for the water to get hot in our room . We were on the eighth floor. The rest of the property is great including the breakfast. Staff is great. Room is clean. The hallway is clean and smells good. The heat and air is quiet. The elevators are clean and fast.

Parking for this hotel is across the street which was a bit inconvenient, but not terrible. They have a "bar" area that we visited, but sat at the bar waiting for the girl to come over and help us, but ended up leaving to go to a different location for drinks because she never came over. We were the only two sitting there... Breakfast was very good and had a great selection. Our room was clean and comfortable.

I was so surprised to witness the management be so rude to a visitor. Their reservations were correct based on their confirmation however what the hotel had was different. They got mad at her for the mistake and told her to leave or they will call the police. It was shocking as it seemed to be the reservation mix up. Never witnessed anything like that. We had a group of 25 staying there and we all wanted to leave. Will never book this place again.

Not only was the staff working at the front desk horribly rude and unprofessional. The hotel itself is in shambles the 1 working elevator was unsafe to use also all the doors connecting to the sky walk were open. The key access system was not working, the downtown has an issue with homelessness. Way too many issues with this hotel to put into a short review.
