Positives: The staff were all very helpful.

Negatives: Nothing.

This is one of the best properties in the area. Well appointed rooms, excellent front desk service (Justin is the BEST, also Lauren and Andrew were friendly and helpful) plus the decor is upscale as well as linens and amenities. The restaurant is very good--they are offering specials and their $2. Tuesday and Thursday "Happy Hour" appetizers are very popular. The only drawback is it is next to a busy road and it can be noisy outside.

Positives: At the front desk is WONDERFUL! All staff are friendly and helpful. Nice property.

Negatives: No complimentary breakfast, can be noisy at times outside.

I wouldn't recommend this hotel because it smelled and it was way to close to the freeway. We had to drive everywhere we went. The only good part was that it had free wifi. People drinking outside our window (bar in the hotel) kept us up.

Positives: Free apples not much else

Negatives: Smelled old, looked old, pool was small, everywhere we went we had to drive.

Justin Hayman, Director of Guest Services, goes out of his way to not only accomodate us but goes above and beyond to fulfill our desires. We highly recommend this hotel and have stayed there at least 3 to 4 times a year. We have never been disappointed.

Positives: The service, ambiance, appearance and location is excellent . The staff is top notch.

Negatives: The food in the restaurant could be improved. It is just ok.

Reviewer: Not provided on Thu 07 Apr 2011 rated 10 out of 10.

While I didn't spend much time at the hotel, it was clean, original in design, and quiet. The adjacent restaurant has great food and a reasonably sized area for bar food and appetizers. Customer service all around was outstanding.

Positives: Customer service was exceptional.

Negatives: GPS/mapping systems could not locate the address.

Not a bad hotel although it is a little dated. We asked to be moved from our first room as the TV was fuzzy and the heater did not work (25 degrees outside was a little too chilly for no heater!) The second room was just fine and no problem getting moved. I tried to use the spa at 9:45 after dinner and it was all locked up, (supposed to be open 'till 10:00).

Positives: Actual rooms were clean. Nice bedding and linens.

Negatives: Hallway carpets were very dirty.

Loved the wall fountain in lobby. Rooms were quiet. Bar was nice but not service. A little awkward getting into hotel but great location. A little disappointed in breakfast buffet.

Positives: Bed slept great.

Negatives: Bar area could be more comfortable.

Comfortable, quiet and<BR/>convenient.

Positives: Quiet and convenient.

Negatives: Some carpet wear at main entrances.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 04 Oct 2009 rated 7 out of 10.

Convenient; quiet; and an efficient staff. Seems that we were placed in lower quality room with most traffic and TV was ~19 in (maybe not even that big). Restaurant was OK - there are much better restaurants in vicinity.

Positives: Ease of registration; Priceline price was great.

Negatives: TV was so small you couldn't see from bed.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sun 27 Sep 2009 rated 10 out of 10.

Hotel is very nice. We would stay here again. My only complaint is the location. It is too far north in Santa Rosa from anywhere else in town.

Positives: Room was great, no complaints.

Negatives: Location is too far north in Santa Rosa.

Nice, convenient hotel in Santa Rosa. Could use elevators but multi-level parking suffices. Friendly, and an accommodating staff.

Positives: Good location. Nice people. Easy checkout.

Negatives: They forgot to stock soap, shampoo and conditioner. But responded quickly.

Once again, I am very satisfied with Priceline. I always use you and after trying Expedia onece, I'll never go anywhere else for my hotels.

Positives: Spacious and clean

Negatives: Nothing

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is wonderful if you want to tour the Wineries in the area (Dry Creek, Russian River Valley, and just 30 minutes away Napa). The hot tub broke one night but the next day was fixed. Great place, especially for the price.

Positives: Great location for seeing the wine country.

Negatives: Pillows were not very comfortable.

Reviewer: Not provided on Wed 05 Aug 2009 rated 7 out of 10.

aesthetically, the hotel was very nice, surrounded by full grown trees, etc. They upgraded us to a jr. suite with 2 queen beds which we found spacious. The shower was dark when shower curtain was drawn. That was the only negative.

Positives: interior design and spaciousness of room

Negatives: parking

Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 31 Jul 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

This hotel has a new building and an older building. Even though the older building is mostly sweets, it is not as nice as the new building. The King bed was very comfortable and the room was clean, the staff was very nice and helpful.

Positives: The bed was very comfortable and the shower head was very good.

Negatives: We stayed in on of the older rooms, not as nice as the new room we stayed in before.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 28 Jul 2009 rated 10 out of 10.

The rooms were very nice and the bed was super comfortable. We enjoyed the pool and spa, they were clean and well heated with poolside service and towels. They accommodated our request to switch from a king room to two queens with no problem, they answered all of our questions about dining in the surrounding area and we enjoyed our stay very much.

Positives: It was cosmetically attractive, well appointed and relaxing.

Negatives: No complimentary breakfast.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 21 Jul 2009 rated 9 out of 10.

Beautiful stone and carved wood appointments. Quiet inside, tranquil.

Negatives: Near busy intersection.

Reviewer: Not provided on Mon 22 Jun 2009 rated 9 out of 10.

Enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Easy access to most any place. Even though it is right off the interstate, it was quiet (for the most part), and comfortable! Would definitely book this hotel again. Great value!

Positives: Great location, easy access to wine country. Quiet for being close to highways.

Negatives: Sunday morning there were kids running up and down the hall.

Reviewer: Not provided on Tue 02 Jun 2009 rated 10 out of 10.

This is a lovely hotel on beautiful grounds. We were without a vehicle, found access to shopping and food easy by either walking or riding public transportation. We were in the business conference area rather than the main hotel but what a bargain Priceline gave us. We were able to stay at a small fraction of the normal price.

Positives: It was easy to access public transportation and was lovely. We were in a mini suite which was lovely.

Negatives: Getting our bags in and out of the room was a bit difficult.

Reviewer: Not provided on Sat 30 May 2009 rated 8 out of 10.

It was a good hotel, well in line for our expectations. Convenient location close to highway, nice lobby with business center, free internet, pool, all good amenities.

Positives: Convenient location for driving through, nice lobby.

Negatives: Pool was not adequately cleaned.
