"We asked for room repairs and cleaning when we left on the shuttle, but nothing was done. The shuttled failed to pick us up after the Wild game. The complimentary breakfast was disorganized, and the food was cold. The on-site bar and restaurant were the bright light of our stay; the service and dining were excellent. Look for a different hotel.2018-01-17"
"The hotel charged extra for Internet access and parking.2016-09-05"
"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. From the nice room to the cocktail reception and complimentary shuttle to the cooked-to-order omelet and coffee, everything was great. The only negative was that the bed sagged in the middle. Definitely a good experience overall.2016-02-03"
"The hotel was too expensive for what we got. Everything was good except the shuttle left us stranded at an event during the winter carnage. We called 3 times an hour and a half before the shuttle hours ended. I won't stay here again.2018-01-31"
"Nice hotel. The room was clean and quiet. I had a lovely stay.2016-10-09"

"Good location and value. The hotel was modern and had character. I recommend staying here.2019-09-16"
"The hotel room was huge and quiet, even on a lower floor. I didn't hear any traffic noise. Valet parking was available, but there was a covered lot around the corner.2017-10-17"
"Not worth the price, though the view was nice and the bathroom was spacious. We weren't told that we'd have to call to have the room serviced. I called for clean cups and towels and they were brought up, but the dirty cups and towels weren't removed. The room and hallway carpeting needed vacuuming. No hotel information in the room. The employees were kind, and the valet service was excellent.2021-10-22"
"The bath was sub-par, and the hotel food was overpriced, but I had a great stay otherwise.2017-10-19"
"An expensive hotel. Everything was first-class until we tried the Citizen Restaurant for breakfast. The service was slow, the food was cold when it arrived, and we didn't get what we ordered. When I told the checkout clerk, I got a blank look.2017-10-12"

"Great ambiance and historical setting. The hotel was short-staffed, but the room was clean. The phone didn't work, and maintenance couldn't repair it. The employees weren't able to answer my questions. The pool area was dirty. No continental breakfast the last day of my stay because the crew didn't turn up, and the floor wasn't clean.2022-04-17"

"OK hotel, but it was too far from downtown to walk. There were plenty of shops and restaurants nearby, but they weren't as trendy as downtown. Nice bar and restaurant.2019-04-13"
"Close to hospitals. We had an emergency, and the hotel staff was so friendly, helpful, and flexible, and extended our checkout staff. We felt safe here despite Covid-19.2020-07-06"
"This hotel was a great choice in an otherwise expensive area. The customer service was exceptional. We really appreciated the shuttle and free parking, and the complimentary hot breakfast was wonderful.

We got a room change right away, along with a $15 deduction for the hassle. The 2nd room smelled less musty, but the door was hard to close. Nice lobby and good breakfast bar. The attendant did a great job.2017-08-17"

At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
