Crazy experience first the most of the parking was assigned to valet. Second they gave us a used room and when i went down the front desk she said if i could wait for them to clean it!!! I was like what! Then she came with the idea of upgrading to a bigger suit but will cost me $40. I told her what if i didnt expect to spend that extra money what should i do! She split the cost to 20 which its not cool because i shouldn't be dealing with dirty rooms. My girlfriend woke up with itching skin how would a nice hotel have bed bugs like that. Next time i would save my money and go to motel 6 better.

The hotel is beautiful, clean and the breakfast at Rainbird was excellent. However we stayed in the 3rd floor and we can hear footsteps from the rooms above, but overall great place! We will for sure come back!

Absolutely beautiful boutique hotel. Lots of street noise, but that's out of their control. The clock has sleep sounds to help with that, and ear plugs are also provided. The beds are very comfortable so I still slept well. I enjoyed my stay.
