Horrible experience from the GM Jordan. This would have been my 5th time staying in this location, and never had been asked that my whole crew of 5 people that I had arrived with for a friend's birthday dinner and was told I couldn't check in until all 5 showed ID. Without even asking and assuming they were staying in the hotel room I asked for what reason was ID needed for all my guests he said it "was policy" I've been here with other multiple guests and never been asked for them to show ID besides just the person paying. He embarrassed my family and I in front of others saying he can just cancel my reservation if I didn't agree with the policy. This is 5 latin woman. I've checked in with other friends which were Caucasian and never had the front desk demand ID from my whole group. This GM not only took the time to walk outside and take a look at my family and then stand in front of his computer and belittle me with canceling my reservation. I really felt that he was bias on his actions towards my family who were there just to eat dinner at the restaurant not staying at the hotel which he "assumed" then after all the embarrassment and arguing back and forth with me again feeling unvalued as a returning guest Jordan says it was because the one person in my group that "looked" under 18. So which was the policy here? He looked at everyone's IDs then changed his reason after he seen that we are legal? Is this what we're doing to your hispanic customers? Horrible experience.

Sadly, due to it being a rainy evening, we missed seeing the much-touted rooftop bar—they closed early, about 10 minutes before we got back from the Judy Collins show! But Matt took good care of us at the lobby bar—where he had to inform me that we weren’t going to be revolving since that feature needs repair. All in all, though, we had a lovely stay. Fully enjoyed the Urban Hot Springs before our delicious meal at Chez Ami! Service there was top notch.
