Frommer's Review

Once you step inside, you'll feel as though you're in a private luxury property rather than a chain lodging just off the freeway. The dominant style is Spanish colonial. The reception area has polished Mexican-tile floors and carved-wood ceiling beams, and, in keeping with the hacienda theme, rooms are arranged around a lushly landscaped courtyard, dotted with umbrella-shaded tables. Guest quarters, renovated in 2004 in earth tones, are airy and spacious, if just a bit dull. Wherever you stay, you needn't walk very far to reach your car as all the sleeping floors have direct access, via room key, to the parking garage. And although the airport is no longer nearby, the businesses that used to cater to air travelers remain, plus you're within minutes of a variety of restaurants and shops.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; outdoor pool; health club; Jacuzzi; concierge; business center; room service; babysitting; concierge-level rooms

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
