I stayed here for one night on business and overall I like the hotel. The hotel itself is quite new and modern with a hip/funky feel to it. The room was neat although there was a hair stuck to the tile in the bathroom that was a bit off putting. Also there were pulled carpet threads where the sliding door... More

Stayed here for one night in early October 2011. Parking was free but uncovered and unsecured behind the hotel. Our room was very clean and furnishings were modern. We stayed on the north eastern side of the hotel, which was quiet, but we heard the occasional loud noise from rowdy neighbors and flushing water noises. The curtains in the room... More

I had an early meeting at a neighbouring company, and chose this hotel with some concern about being next to a busy freeway. No need to worry, they've done an excellent job of making the rooms quiet. Check-in and check-out were fast and efficient. The rooms are well furnished and comfortable, and equipped with all the basics. There was plenty... More
