Was fortunate to stay in their newly opened wing. Super clean, great amenities, friendly staff. Parking is nearby and validated by hotel (sundial parking garage). Ver walkable to local restaurants and Jannus Landing. Will stay again to visit Dali museum and the Pier. Nice coffee shop in lobby and they are working on a rooftop bar.

Cordova was a good location for us. It was within walking distance of the Festival we attended. The original building is someone tired and needs a good cleaning. They are building a new addition which looks very nice.

Great place, friendly staff, we stayed in the old part of the hotel. They are building a new part. The bathrooms in the old part of the hotel are very nice but are "period". small toilets, pedistal sinks, claw foot tub/shower. everything worked well no issues at all. Just wanted to note to all that this isnt a "resort" bathroom. Beds were comfortable. TV/WIFi no issues. Would stay here again.

This hotel doesn’t have many amenities, no gym, no pool or spa, etc. it is being added on to and renovated. The staff was attentive to requests (replaced a mildewed shower curtain) and friendly. There is nice intimate bar in the lobby. They have installed an elevator. Nice veranda.

Excellent location. Everything is within walking distance. Rooms were clean. Staff is small and not present 24 hours but friendly. Bathroom was tiny but manageable. Bed was comfy. More like an ABNB than a hotel. Parking was a block away. Great for a quick night or two in the town.

Staff not very friendly. Incorrect directions to parking. Room never made up, figured by day 3 you have to put towels in basket outside room if you want new towels. This was never explained. No one was there at checkout. Lack of ventilation-room smelled moldy. Towels smelled. Bed was a joke, large dip on side. Shower curtain around clawfoot tub insufficient to keep water inside tub. Not worth the price.

Cordova Inn Near Jannus Live

Parking free in a garage around the corner, just enter your tag in the iPad at the front desk and you get validated. Room was a bit older, cracks in our sink and shower floor a bit worn but bed comfortable enough, mini fridge and microwave handy. Super convenient to Jannus Live and downtown nightlife, tons of restaurants and bars around!

Disliked: Amenities
The property has the potential to be lovely but needs a lot of TLC. The room we were in was on the 3rd floor and very run down. Paint chipping off the walls. Shower was very unpredictable. Our TV did not work and when I reported the issue to the front desk the reply was “oh I never watch TV so I don’t know anything about that” then she offered to get maintenance in the next day ( it was 10 am when I reported it). The bar seemed nice but we did not use it as it was very small and not enough seating. Hopefully they will get it together as it is a beautiful building in a great location.
