Our room was on the highway side, so it was noisy from the traffic. I'd suggest getting a room that doesn't face the highway. The air conditioner was a bit noisy too, but not enough to make us want to switch rooms. We'll be staying there again on our next visit to the city.

The hotel is really beautiful on the outside and the lobby. This is my family's 2nd time to stay here. I was a little disappointed in the room. It looked very run down and it wasn't very clean in the bathroom. However, everything else was great. My kids and my parents loved the area and loved the stay outside of the bathroom issue, but overall a pretty good stay.

There is a beautiful southwestern fireplace in the lobby and a lovely park-like courtyard outside as well as an outdoor patio space in front. The staff was very friendly & helpful but the restaurant & lounge were out of a lot of items (I couldn’t get a salad because they were out of lettuce, my friend couldn’t get the kind of drink he wanted because they were out of the correct glassware). The rooms weren’t cleaned every day and they should have been just a little cleaner (4 out of 5 for cleanliness). There’s nothing to do in this area so be prepared to drive everywhere but - the good & bad - it’s right off the highway-so you won’t have a problem accessing places but it is LOUD. You will hear traffic all night. Overall I would rate it as 4 stars.
