Rooms are a bit dingey but the pool makes up for it. Do not book courtyard rooms. Those are almost below ground level facing a concrete wall supposedly "hiding" the parking lot. Hotel lobby is nice and spacious and they have a wine hour 5-6 pm every day. The gift shop has quality tasteful stuff too. Once again, the pool area is a lot greener and more relaxing than at the Valley-Ho or W or even the Sanctuary
