"We love this hotel. Over 12 years, we've stayed here over a dozen times. It's a fun place with funky decor. Having a coffee bar on each floor is wonderful.2019-06-20"
"I've stayed at this hotel at least 15 times in the last 11 years, and it never fails to disappoint me. It's luxurious and never boring, and the staff is friendly. On our last visit, the bellman asked what the occasion was for our trip; we replied that we were celebrating our birthdays. A few minutes later, we received a bottle of wine. Be sure to visit the morning coffee bar in your bathrobe.2018-08-17"

"Both elevators were out of order; I got stuck in one and had to scream for assistance. My room was on the 16th floor, so it was a long climb down to get to the street entrance. Don't stay at this hotel.2020-06-12"
"We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The only problem was that the bar staff kept serving a man tequila shots until he was drunk, and he was bothering women in the bar. This made us uncomfortable.2022-06-22"
"The hotel was within walking distance of the hospital, and the eateries on the ground floor made mealtime easy. The beds were incredibly comfortable. Valet parking was extremely efficient. We felt relaxed and safe here.2022-05-06"
"Close to the medical center. The hotel room was clean and comfortable. It took us a minute to figure out the elevator, but a quick tutorial from another guest did the trick. Check-in and checkout were efficient and pleasant. We ate in the restaurant; it was convenient, and the food was good, and we enjoyed a drink at the bar. The server was friendly and remained calm when it was busy. I'd stay here again.2021-07-01"
"The bed was horrible, so I changed rooms. The dishwasher was jammed under the counter and had cracked the countertop. The patio door was crooked, and cold air came in. No TV for 3 days. The shower and bathtub were rusted and moldy. No shuttle on weekends. Don't stay at this hotel.2024-01-18"

"The hotel room was clean and large, but only one roll of toilet paper was provided for each bathroom. I had to ask for blankets and pillows for the sofa bed, too. The restaurant was dark and old. On a positive note, the employees were all welcoming and friendly.2023-05-26"
"Short walk to the hospital or to get something to eat. The hotel was clean and quiet, and the staff was nice.2023-05-15"
"The hotel bar and cafe were expensive. The menu was limited, and the food wasn't very tasty.2022-11-19"
"A nice, rather basic hotel. I appreciated the front desk clerk, who was kind and helpful when we became stranded and had to stay an extra night. Nice breakfast. The shuttle drivers were helpful, prompt, and courteous. Self-parking was difficult; the entrance ramp was so steep that it scraped the bottom of my car. The parking spaces were small and hard to get in and out of.2022-12-19"

"The hotel was clean, but there must have been a leak because the carpet was wet. The back elevator was broken, and we were almost stranded in the other one. We ended up using the stairs to our 3rd floor room. I was disappointed that there was a $50 deposit when paying cash.2023-07-06"
"The hotel was too noisy at night, and the beds were too firm. The shuttle didn't run on weekends, but the weekday driver was nice. Breakfast wasn't good. Consider other options.2023-03-06"
"The 2nd floor of this hotel was smelly and filthy. Breakfast was awful. Don't stay here.2022-12-21"

"Nice hotel except for the renovation work in the area.2016-01-11"
"The hotel staff was friendly, and there was security in the parking lot. Drinks and snacks were charged to the room. Pretty good breakfast for $20. Stay here.2023-11-03"
"Good room. The people in the next room were so loud that I didn't sleep well. No free bottled water provided. The hotel clerk didn't seem happy that we were there. The restaurant wasn't open because of Covid, but a to-go breakfast was available for purchase.2020-11-01"
"The hotel was clean and close to the hospital. Nice personnel. I had a pleasant stay.2020-10-07"

"The hotel employees were courteous and helpful, and they all had a smile.2022-09-14"
"I could hear the light rail until 1:30 AM, as well as people chatting outside the hotel on the street below. Valet parking cost $32, and there was a long line waiting when we arrived. We had to find a luggage cart and unload our luggage, too.2019-03-14"
"Across the street from the underground tunnel system. All the hotel employees were friendly and wanted our stay to be wonderful. Highly recommend.2016-06-07"
"Our room was a corner unit with a great view. The bed was super comfortable, and the pillows were super soft. Easy check-in. The hotel staff was friendly, and the valet was fast and efficient. Breakfast at the restaurant was good, and I had a drink in the bar.2024-01-13"
"Our king corner suite was nice and had a good view. We arrived at 4PM and had to wait 45 minutes to check in. There was a sticker and price tag from someone's new shoes stuck on the chair. Be sure you have refreshments in the room if it's a holiday; there was nowhere to get anything after hours.2023-01-03"
"Nice hotel. The staff was courteous and professional. I enjoyed my stay.2018-09-02"
"This hotel is a wonderful place to stay. We easily walked to Toyota Center, and the Metro was just steps away. Nice, spacious room with firm beds. The bathroom was big. Good food at the bistro. The valet parking was worth the cost for the convenience. Not much green space for dogs in the area.2017-04-13"

"Great place to stay. The hotel was close to everything, and the staff was helpful and friendly. I highly recommend using valet parking and taking the shuttle to attractions.2017-07-18"

"We had a comfortable stay and were able to walk to the stadium from the hotel. The room seemed to be set up for one person instead of two; there was only one washcloth and one caffeinated coffee packet. The rooftop bar closed early, so we weren't able to experience it. We recommend staying here.2021-08-07"
I’ve been using HotelGuides for over 8 years. The agents are very helpful, and they try to accommodate every request. I like that when they email a booking confirmation to you, they include the hotel's address as well as its interstate exit number.
We order the hotels on this page by how close they are to this attraction.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
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.
