Nice place to stay on the plaza. Older hotel they are trying to keep looking good. Rooms have been updated and are clean. Bar area and live music in lobby is fantastic. Valet parking is quick.my only complaint is I requested a late check out of noon and I still had no less than 3 people knock on my door between 10:30 and 11:30 even with the sign out.

The room trim was old, chipped paint, wallpaper peeling. Balcony was literally looking at the roof. The outdoor patio at restaurant was full of cigarette butts and broken wired lattice. Overall just mediocre. We slept ok, that’s a plus side and felt safe in the area.
