FantasticStayed with kids
The staff were amazing. We were traveling with a toddler and that’s never easy. But the staff were so welcoming and made the stay very easy. The room was on the smaller end but over all we had a good stay. Can’t wait to be back.

Good Positives: very pet friendly! Loved not having extra pet fees and our dogs were so comfortable at the hotel.
Cons: Hotel is OLD. Yes it’s renovated and looks beautiful but it’s still OLD. You can hear everything from neighbors and everything going on on State St. We visited during Old Spanish Days/Fiesta and the hotel didn’t provide notice to us before that there would be music and bands outside of our window until well after midnight. Would have been nice if the hotel provided a notice of this with ear plugs.
