The hotel and The staff were amazing. My problem was with Expedia. I booked a room for the day after I actually needed it. That was my fault, and I totally understand that. the hotel said that they cannot change the reservation or refund me because they had not been paid by Expedia at that time. The hotel also said they would not charge me a cancellation fee or any penalties.I called Expedia they told me to rebook with them and they would refund me for the night that I didn’t need. The refund never happened so I was charged double for a room.

Worst choice for a hotel for this price. Staff at front desk unfriendly Lady that greeted us totally unfriendly and appeared unhappy doing her job (Linda). Also parking fees are outrageous $36.00 dollars a day. Parking limited and tight. No microwaves in rooms. Very noisy! Overpriced!

We stayed in the hotel for the soccer tournament having Saturday and Sunday early morning games. Both nights there was a loud music near the hotel for the entire nights. I understand that a hotel management is not directly responsible for the outside people who smoke weed and play music next to the hotel. From the other side 1. it is my experience 2. Hotel windows don't block external sounds at all. Hotel itself was fine, but it doesn't matter when you don't sleep at night.

Zero complaints!

Booked our stay super last minute for a concert and everything was smooth sailing. The parking ticket validation is a plus as well as the short walk to Golden 1 arena. So convenient!! So much ease and staff was great. Will definitely be back for more stays.
