"Everyone was so welcoming from check in to check out! Breakfast was great and the gal working breakfast was terrific. We would definitely stay here again and recommend!"

Hotel Chaco

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible property situated perfectly in town near Old Town and a Market with countless food outlets and entertainment. Clean rooms and nice quiet areas to relax and read!"

The Clyde Hotel

8/10 Good

"It’s a lovely hotel but a bit outdated and needs some upgrading. Nonetheless, it’s a beautiful property. Two issues overall. One, the food was absolutely horrible. Don’t even bother. Two and the worst issue that we ran into was the valet situation. There was only one valet at any given moment and they are constantly being asked to do other things so no one hardly ever answers the valet phone and when you do go down there sometimes you’re waiting just for someone to show up because they’re doing God knows what else in the hotel. Obviously not the valet fault but there has to be a better system. It’s understaffed many times throughout the day based on demand and the staff that is there is doing other things…"
