Came down for my wife’s Birthday. The hotel person I was talking to through text & in person basically didn’t do anything to accommodate my wants at this hotel. Even though he asked me to give him my email and phone number he still didn’t accommodate anything. I wanted to order room service for my wife birthday & he completely annoyed my request. Very disappointing in that aspect. Hotel is in a good location from 4th street live but forth street live was really lively when we were there. It seems like the areas around outside of 4th street live was more lively with entertainment then 4th street live street. So if you are looking to have fun in that aspect I would not book on 4th street live but if you are looking for a hotel that is quiet and peaceful then 4th street live hotels is good for that now sense it’s not as lively as it used to be.

The hotel was gorgeous and clean, offered complimentary cocktails and an extravagant breakfast and the staff went above and beyond to be friendly, personable and helpful. Only area I wasn’t a fan of was the indoor pool, which was unimaginative and loud (fans and pipe noises). I didn’t spend much time there anyway, but props for it being open until 11 p.m.!
