Staff was polite & helpful, room was clean. 24 hour valet necessary & appreciated but pricey ($40 for overnight plus tip). Bath products were off-putting. One smelled worse than the other and overall were akin to pesticide. Never experienced anything like it, but you don’t book a hotel for their shampoo. I didn’t have a chance to visit the restaurant or breakfast café so can’t comment.

The room was clean and the staff were wonderful. The problems were the beds were far too high and the room was so small two people could not pass at any point in the room. The biggest problem was the flat shower bottom had nothing for grip and was so slick we had to lay a towel down to even be able to stand and not slip. Very unsafe and we will never stay there again.

This was just an okay stay. The room really wasn't worth the price. It kinda seemed like prices were high maybe because the event I was attending. The room was nice but not any better than your average hotel. It was a good cleanliness . Comfortable bed. We had an issue with the toilet handle sticking. I had to remove the tank lid twice to adjust it. I know it's a simple fix but again not something I want to be doing when I paid $300+ for a single night and a hotel. And the tank was still running the chain wouldn't stay in place properly I had to inform the front desk prior to check out this morning. The atmosphere was great lovely and fun vibes in the lobby ,the saloon was really neat the over all theme was really cool. We did try breakfast there I got a cappuccino, scrambled eggs and a side of bacon. Bacon was super fatty I had to pick it a part and couldn't eat half of it because it wasn't cooked enough and my eggs were really hard to eat. They tasted like strait vegetable oil and If I hadn't bought a drink I probably wouldn't have been able to eat them at all so I was very disappointed with breakfast but the coffee was good. I don't really think I'll come stay again.
