We got a free room upgrade with our Expedia Gold membership and we loved our room/upgrade. It was very spacious and comfortable. We also got a $20 drink credit, which we used at the bar next to the lobby. It’s a cool bar and our bartender was really nice. The location is good too. Overall, a great experience.

I had a great 4 day stay at this hotel. The staff was welcoming especially the bartender and concierge. The concierge person recommended some good local restaurants that I tried and the food was good. The room was cozy and the beds were comfortable. The hotel was clean and the view from my room was gorgeous.

The hotel location is not great and is a bit on the older side. Room was clean and has everything you need. The staff was helpful, but some were not as friendly as others. Beware of the $39 destination fee, which wasn't clear during booking. The redwood room was definitely the highlight!
