The room was nice, clean and quiet. It had only two hangers and only two hard wooden chairs, no soft easy chair. Otherwise very good.
We stayed in the Royal Suite and loved how spacious the room was. Walking to the entertainment venue was literally across the parking lot! Very happy with our choice!!
When you’re going to a show at the Blue Gate PAC, it’s a great place to stay. We always get the breakfast in the morning which is excellent! Highly recommend!
