"We stayed here with our dog for a show at the Allianz Amphitheater. The room was huge and at the end of a hallway. The property is a little old but the bathroom was nice and the bed was comfortable. Only real downside is that they are tearing down the building next store and work started at 7am. It was definitely not something you could sleep through. But otherwise, I’d absolutely stay here again! Just keep in mind also that the only parking is valet!"
