The Sage Hotel
On the southern edge of the Railyard District, this smart motel offers affordable comfort, modern bohemian Southwestern decor, and a location that's just about a 5-minute walk to the Railyard and a 15-minute walk from the Plaza. Although there is a $15 "Xperience Xclusive" fee in addition to room rates, it includes access to the seasonal outdoor pool, parking, shuttle service to/from the Plaza, property-wide Wi-Fi, the 24-hour fitness center, the business center, and an extensive hot breakfast. The on-site bar and restaurant, Social, has good Southwestern comfort food, a broad drink menu, and regular live entertainment. Get a room upstairs in one of the rear buildings for the most privacy and quiet.
