Overall very comfortable stay. Experience in the bar at 3rd floor could have been better. There weee many guests in the bar but only one server which leads to delay in orders. However the only server a lady, she was doing great job single-handily.

Everything was fine, but it all could have been a little better for that price. Parking was confusing; we prepaid but there were no instructions, ended up paying to exit the wrong lot, and had to circle back to use valet, which wasn’t explained. At check-in they didn’t apply our $25 voucher until we asked and repeatedly showed proof even at checkout. Staff weren’t rude but didn’t guide us about the property at all or even explain how to get to our room, instead we had to rely on random QR codes we found. Also, calling it a “resort” and charging an extra $30 feels like a stretch since the pool closes at 7 and there’s no hot tub. And even though we thought we booked a king, we ended up with two queens due to the room-type-flex package, maybe my mistake, but IDK. Also, balcony door didn’t lock, door on bathroom is weird and there’s no privacy, and the shower has no door or cover. We were planning to recommend this place for our upcoming wedding, but we will probably pass.

Fabulous room loved the upgrade. We have stayed in the past and enjoyed the proximity to the Golden One center and all the benefits and people watching after the game we like to go to Echo + Riq for a snack and drink but there was terrible service by the hostess. Not the vibe we have experienced in the past. Didn’t seem like they wanted any other customers. Sad. Really.
