Always a great place to stay and had been there over 15 times in last 5 years! This time they dropped the ball but room is always nice and great breakfast. Woman wasn’t in a good mood when checked in and also dropped the ball on room service the next day.

We crashed in the Woodstock Suite and had a far-out time. Everything was clean and carried that groovy retro vibe just right. I haven’t slept on a waterbed in years, and it was a real blast from the past. Staff communication was solid—totally cool folks. A few notes for future travelers and the management cats: The room didn’t have any regular chairs—just a couple of folding ones in the closet. The floor pillows were very hip and mellow, but not ideal if you dig a little more support or have mobility issues. The property seems pretty wheelchair-friendly overall, but the pillows near the entrance make the first step inside a bit tricky for anyone rolling or walking with assistance. The front desk closes at midnight. They’ll set up a lockbox for late arrivals—just give them a heads-up so you’re all in sync. All in all, it was a cool, comfy stay with good vibes. We’d totally book it again.
