A fancy motel but not worth the price
Pros:

The wooden/scandi vibe to the design

Cons:

This should be considered a motel rather than a hotel; there was no house keeping, the included breakfast wasn’t running one of the days and the days it was, it was so basic it was closer to a convenience shop.

Pros:

Very clean, comfortable beds, staff very friendly especially the afternoon bartender.. We loved him.

Cons:

Bathroom glass doors get water all over the floor but wasn't a big deal we just used towels when we got out to clean up, and the handle in the shower kept falling off every time you turned the water on. My husband said just needed to be tightened.

Won’t stay again due to the toilet issues and double charge for the stay.
Pros:

The place was pretty with easy check in.

Cons:

The restaurant was closed. Our toilet clogged and we were told it would not be tended to till the next day meaning we could not use the bathroon all evening into the next day. My husband had to go to the store and buy a plunger. I was also charged twice for the stay and have not been reimbursed and now have to pay interest on the charge.

Content and will return!
Pros:

As a returning guest I love the property and location! I love that it’s set back off the strip away from the hustle and bustle. I love that it’s considerably small. I love the design and decor. Coming and being here truly gives me a sense of peace, quiet, and recuperation! A break away from my reality!

Cons:

I got the same exact room as the first time I visited. Then the shower leaked and flooded the bedroom. This time I could see the shower was repaired, so no leaking. However, We had some issues with the air conditioning system but after an hour and a half of research we figured it out. It seems there has been a decline in staffing and probably even management. The restaurant bar wasn’t open very much or long. There was one housekeeper on site for a few hours each day, and I worry he may have too much on his plate to manage and maintain cleanliness to standards within his work day. I manage the house keeping department in a hospital, so I noticed several opportunities for improvement but generally the rooms are satisfactory.

Great stay other than above mentioned, and that wasn’t hard to deal with.
Pros:

We enjoyed the room, loved the shower. Good rate. Room was comfortable and clean.

Cons:

Insulation between rooms could be better, loud self important people on cellphone and children.
Person on phone extremely loud, even speaking to her spouse.
