Pros:

We really liked the location and friendliness of the staff. If we were in town longer we would have taken advantage of the nearby shopping. We ate within walking distance of the hotel and we also enjoyed the breakfast at the hotel the next morning. The valet was safe and efficient.

Cons:

I have no complaints.

Overall , the Hotel was a great place to stay in Santa Rosa.
Pros:

The location of the Hotel was near many great restaurants. The ambiance of the Hotel was very unique as it was an old bank and law office previously. The staff and valet were friendly and accommodating.

Cons:

The Housekeeping was not that good as we repeatedly had to ask for towels, tissues and toilet paper. We would throw the dirty towels on ground to be replaced but they were always short on the replacements.

Excellent choice and would come back.
Pros:

Staff were amazing and the building was beautiful. Rooms were on the smaller side, but clean and perfect for what we needed.

Cons:

Lot's of construction around the building in the early morning. Nothing like waking up to a jackhammer. Not the hotel's fault, but a warning would have been nice.
