The room is confortable but there is not safer/locker or fridge in the room. Also, you can hear other guests talking in the hall. The hotel itself was very clean but the blocks around the hotel were not nice, lots of homeless in that neighborhood. The room has a coffee machine, but after the first day, after using the two coffee pods in the room, we need to request the front desk for more because they would not replenish the coffee or cups when they cleanned the room. The breakfast in the restaurant downstairs was supposed to be served from 06:30am to 10am. We were there at 06:35am and the waiter said that coffee would be ready in 10-15 min which was a bit of iupset since we needed leave the hotel at 7am to go to Napa. Other than that the food was ok. I beleive the restaurant is not part of the hotel is runned by a thirt party. The hotel staff were very nice and helpful.

Our room was large. The bed was comfortable and the AC was brand new and worked well. But there were a few broken items— a light shade and the shampoo dispenser in the shower. Also the bathroom light was on a motion detector and it kept turning off while we were showering! No one wants to be left in the dark in a slippery shower.

The only issue is you need $200 extra for them to hold onto while you stay on their property. Other than that is was a really great place to stay and cheap. They said they started to implement a $20 amenities fee but I feel like they should add that to the full price of the stay.
