Great!

The room was amazing! Very hugh cielings and a chandelier looks amazing, and the bed was huge and comfy. The only problem is that the shower has a very small lip to contain the water and the bathroom will flood easily, and doesnt have adequate drainage. Be careful or else you might have a flooded bathroom when you brush your teeth or go to the restroom

We stayed for 3 nights while celebrating my birthday. Pros: Great interior design. Lots of great gold and art deco/geometric touches all throughout the property. Nice high ceilings. Just about an 1.5hr drive from Sequioa and Kings Canyon Natl Parks. Cons: A confusing mishap was handled poorly by manager Jessica and a handful of the customer service staff. We were told by multiple staff members that a dining discount would apply to our dinner bill and Jessica was kind enough to explain that the staff advised me incorrectly. A better show of goodwill would’ve been to issue to discount anyway for our trouble. The mattress was a bit hard for our comfort and the sheets while clean-smelling were stained with what may have been a previous coffee/wine spill. We didn’t make a big deal of it and was generally satisfied with the room’s function. My status with Expedia allowed access to a complimentary room upgrade however this was not available at the time of check-in. The desk staff advised that we’d instead receive free self parking and free late checkout (12pm vs. 11am checkout). Free parking was already a feature I had access to via my Expedia status. This may have been a missed opportunity to go far and beyond expectations, perhaps by offering a dinner discount or some other show of value and goodwill. Similar properties may make note of the day of the birthday and leave a small treat in the room - for example. All in all it was a great trip and we enjoyed it.
