Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful. The rooms were beautifully appointed with cozy fireplaces and balcony views, although there was a slight stale-smoke smell lingering. The service was overly friendly and accommodating, making my experience truly special. The location was convenient, right off the main strip, and the dining experience was a treat with freshly made breads and granola. Overall, a great value for a lovely stay.
Staying at the SYI hotel felt like a royal experience with clean and well-kept rooms to a high standard. The fabulous common areas added to the luxurious vibe, though more dining choices would have been a plus.
