Everything is awesome! I’m just tired of the new fad where people don’t have mufflers on their vehicles these days to be a nuisance. The Grange had one of the best New York strips I’ve had in a while. The bread that they get daily from Oakland is awesome! The gelato was really good. I really loved the style of the hotel and the ambience.

Disappointing, under construction, location is not very good, lots of retail closed, park across the street is loaded with homeless most under the influence of substance. Area does not seem safe. Curtains badly stained, toilet had an issue...I fixed. Noisy location, restaurant however was very good! Staff was good as well. Hotel is a mixed bag...nice place with some minor maintenance issues. Location is the main issue and room rates should not be this high consider that location.
