The motel had a DJ event that shook the walls till 2 AM. This was not revealed at check-in. All attempts to contact a manager have been unsuccessful. It was very expensive for a very bad experience. The second night was fine
Everything was great. Although one of the bartenders was very rude with me from just simply asking a question on if I could get coffee there in the morning. Very unprofessional.

People need to understand before they stay here, this is an historic hotel and they keep it dated to preserve the history. Rooms were dated and fabulous, I loved it. There are two bars on the first level and the walls are THIN. Know that you will hear music and noise inside and outside until 2am, even in your room. This is a college town and college kids are every, it’s to be expected.
The front desk attendant was welcoming & talkative. The vibe I expected, walking into a nearly 100 year old hotel, was reassessed. The energy was vibrant while still maintaining its nearly 100 year old patina. Bravo!

Bed was comfortable, location was great, room was quiet and clean, jetted tub was a bonus! The only negative was the receptionist when we got there, she was not very friendly or knowledgeable. But later in the evening there was a gentleman who helped us and he was amazing, kind and helpful!

Our stay at the Monte Vista was great & the staff was excellent! Both Joy & Marissa went above and beyond for us. My husband knocked his wallet & phone off the table and they fell behind the curtain & we did not realize it until we were on the train headed out of town. Joy went across the street (thats where my locator said it was) then back up to the room to listen for the phone pinging - she went right away when I called - it was a good thing because the phone was about dead. She found both items behind the curtain for us! Then Marissa had to print 2 labels & box up the items twice then make 2 trips to the post office to mail it back to us (1st time I messed up the label). We so appreciate their honesty (I told them to keep the little amount of money in the wallet but they wouldn’t do that) & all the extra lengths they went to getting our items returned to us safely. We will never forget your kindness!

We chose a, "standard king room with a view." The room measured about 12 X 15. The closet was the width of the suitcase and about 4 feet high. The bathroom was like a broom closet. No shelves, no hooks. There were 4 electrical outlets, one behind the bed. They were so loose the cords would not stay in and our electronics went dead. The little wall heater barely worked and it was freezing in our room. We requested extra blankets to at least warm up while in bed. There is a small elevator but no carts. We made 3 trips to carry our stuff to the room. We sat on the edge of the bed to watch TV which only got local channels. We were supposed to be there 4 nights. We checked out after the first night. I would never stay here again.

The music and noise from the bar area made it impossible to sleep until after the bar closed at 2 a.m.
Parking was an issue as it was full and had to an additional $30 to park in the adjacent parking garage.
Comforter wasn't clean and had to be replaced.
The room was 1 hour late getting ready. The air conditioning unit looked like it was installed by a 10 year old. The sheets were stained and threadbare. The rave music was thumping till after midnight. You’re catering to the wrong group of people. Watch “Restaurant Impossible” and get a clue.
We were looking forward to staying here, but unfortunately, the bed albeit soft, had dips in it and then it was extremely noisy as our room was over the bar which was EXTREMELY noisy, and that lasted until one or two in the morning so sleeping was very difficult. Hotel itself is very beautiful. The area around it is really nice, but not sure that I would stay at this hotel again.
