The stark black and white color scheme immediately starts to vibrate your aesthetic sense when you arrive. Your room is integrated with a tablet computer and has a plentiful bathroom, Xbox 360, and iPod docking station.

The Skybar has a gratuitous view of the Sierra Madres Mountains where you can stake out a beverage-bedecked vantage point or take a swim in the pool. At night, it attracts all the local social butterflies to its expertly-manned bar.
