unsafe neighborhood

The overall condition of the hotel was concerning, and it made me

feel uncomfortable throughout my stay. While the staff were friendly and attentive, the unsafe neighborhood and misleading room conditions overshadowed any positives. It was disheartening as I had hoped for a pleasant visit while traveling with my daughter.

vibrant nightlife

family-friendly location

dirty conditions

We enjoyed the vibrant nightlife just a short walk from the hotel, which was a huge plus for our teenagers. The location made it easy to explore nearby attractions, keeping the family entertained.

My kids wished for a cleaner room. The dirty conditions really detracted from our stay, especially with the broken fixtures and lack of attention to cleanliness.

The pool was awesome for cooling off during the heatwave! The location is convenient for quick access to snacks and gas. Plus, the gated parking made us feel secure. The waffles at breakfast were a hit with the kids!

A Pleasant Stay Despite Minor Drawbacks

The queen room offered comfortable beds, perfect for our family after a long day exploring Reno. Parking was convenient, though it could use better snow clearing. A tip, check for nearby dining options to make your stay even more enjoyable.
