Perfect if you have events at Huntington Place, but not worth the value for price I paid $275 per night.
Pros:

Close proximity to my event.

Cons:

Old rooms need to be remodeled. Walls need to plaster and new window treatments in bathroom

Awesome stay!
Pros:

Front desk service is always top notch. Valet great! Wonderful room view. Love that you ask what floor we would like lower, middle or upper. Kiddo loved the pool

Cons:

Pool was a bit cold. Granted it was the coldest weekend in several years but wish it was maybe just a touch warmer during winter time.
