I reserved three rooms for my daughter’s graduation at Golden 1 arena. One of the worst hotels I’ve stayed at with doors having a 3 inch gap at the floor, water would not drain and a DJ playing music infill 11pm!

This used to be our go-to hotel when visiting the immediate area. Well, it has certainly taken a downturn. The adjacent shopping mall was anchored by Macy’s. Now, that’s bordered shut along with several other former stores/eateries. The hotel’s overall general condition is starting to show wear and tear. Several of the areas are cordoned off for no access. The small store on the ground floor selling snacks and gifts is now shuttered. Free bottled water at the front desk is now being offered for sale. Access to the nearby mall walkway is now blocked and there is only one way in and out. We will not be going here in the future. It’s sad but true.
