Fun place
Honestly, this place was cooler than I thought it was going to be. Fun stuff everywhere. There is even billiards and games in the club house and yard there. So, after you've had some fun out with your friends, you can come back and chill with some relaxed fun. The room are themed and interesting. I'd come back if I ever head this way again.

Great hotel, but some issues ...
The hotel was really nice. However, there were a couple security and comfort issues. This review is specific to the Gatsby Suite. The windows in the bathroom had no privacy. These windows were high but you could easily see in/out. There was an attempt at a curtain in the toilet but nothing for the shower. The second concern is using traditional keys for the door. The deadbolt and handle lock used the same key and was accessable from the outside. There was no peephole or inside door latch/swing botl. We would have felt more comfortable with electronic lock and a deadbolt that was only accessible from inside. The hotel is really nice, we really enjoyed the stay, the cleanliness and the staff. I just hope that these issues are fixed for future guests.

Great place to spend a night
We stay here very often on our way to Arizona. Some people also told us they also did stay at this place. It has a theme, and every room is different. The bed was very, very comfortable. Very clean and quiet place. We really love it
