I stayed at this hotel last weekend with a friend. I nearly drove right by it, it doesn't have a big flashy sign, and the exterior looks a bit worn. Inside, however, the hotel is trendy and clean. The room was nice but nothing special (they actually upgraded us to a large king room but we needed 2 beds). The... More

While I am writing this, I was still staying in the hotel at the point of time. Then decided to write this because, next is a truly above and beyond remarkable experience. I finished my water that I had purchased from the groceries a few days ago. This is because I traveled from a pampered country so I was slightly... More

I stayed there for 9 days in autumn. Small, friendly hotel with very nice staff. Happy hour every day at 6 (i think) with couple of bottles of wine and few beers. Large rooms (well at least large comparing to Europe). It could use a bit of a face-lift but hard to complain about it when looking at the price.... More

My husband and I booked this hotel online for a concert we were going to at the shoreline amphitheatre. Not being from around here or knowing what to expect we were pleasantly surprised at how cute the hotel turned out to be. The room was very original and complimentary breakfast was great! It's always nice to book a good deal... More

My rating for Hotel Avante is in comparison to its other Joie de Vire counterparts. We stay at the boutique chain frequently and enjoy the atmosphere. The feeling of home but with each hotel being a bit different. That said I would not discourage anyone from staying here as it was not that type of disappointment. I will explain. The... More

My husband had business in the area, so I tagged along for a bit of a vacation in CA. We chose this hotel because of its convenient location for where my husband needed to go. The hotel looked pretty nice in the pictures (which are accurate), and had decent reviews. If you are looking for a nice place to stay... More

Overall: This was fine. The lobby didn’t wow me, but that might have been because of the hipsters draping themselves over the furniture, so that even if we’d wanted to sit for a few minutes to wait for a cab or something, we couldn’t have really done so. This wasn’t a need of ours, so it’s just an observation. The... More

The hotel does not have a valet parking nor bellboy to carry your luggage! The hotel is very small & I can not understand how this has qualified to be hotel not an INN. Do not be fooled by the free breakfast. They have very cheap tables & chairs in a "closet" with super cheap quality food!!!! The staff was... More

The staff at this hotel does everything to try to please you. The rooms are comfortable, and the breakfast is good. I loved all the different kinds of juices. The business center is a bit small, and it can take some time to wait your turn to print something out. The hotel is an easy 15 minute drive away from... More

We organised to stay here specifically because the hotel was advertised as wheelchair accessible - false advertising. Only concessions made for accessibility was in the bathroom. Grab railings had been installed and the bath tub had been removed to make a large shower space. When asked for the use of a shower chair the attending staffer at first didn't realise... More
