This is our fourth time staying at the Art Ovation because we love it. It’s a super-clean, elegant hotel that also is a great value for the money. This time, the desk clerk, Annemarie, upgraded us to the nicest room at the hotel we have stayed in so far. The valet parking guys are awesome, the pool area & rooftop bar are gorgeous & everyone is super-friendly. We will be back!
