Nice decor.  The entrance is elegant and stylish.  The room is also very nice, with 42" flat screen tv and oversize couch.  Working desk and mini fridge with a sink.  The only drawback is the bathroom.  It's very SMALL.  There's no room between the door and the toilet seat, so close.  Other than that, I think the place is awesome.  We came here because our place is running out hot water....Nothing really in this area...no food yet..:(

5-star room...!
3-star location...

A sweet suite and magical walls, I tell ya!

What used to be an AmeriSuites is now a Hyatt Place and the accommodations (whether they were there previously or are a part of a remodeling) are luxurious!

The room, which S got just for gits and shiggles as a bonus award from her Hyatt points, was spacious!  Upon opening the heavy, sound-dampening door, you enter the living "room" (about 12' by 14'), which is immediately welcoming thanks to a HUGE couch/hide-away-bed (... my bed!), a large ottoman , a mini fridge, granite wet bar, and a desk.

Beyond this, you'll find the beds, another luxurious granite vanity, the closet and the restroom/shower.  The two Hyatt Grand beds were very comfortable; though I am partial to firm beds, so this may or may not be to your liking.

In between the two areas, a monumental 42" flat-panel HDTV sits atop a swivel base to face into either room.  Additionally, the entertainment center its perched on has a plethora of A/V connection options (... watch/make/star in a movie anyone?...)

And the walls?  The walls must be made of some new miracle plaster to have kept all the noise we were making from ringing out through the halls.  (You're all a bunch a perverts and that's why I like ya, but no, nothing like that... 8 of us got together and play'd hold'em and Outburst while finishing off a half-gallon of Stoli and a big'ol jug of sangria.)  With all the hootin', hollerin', music and laughing, I was certain we'd get tossed out... but no.  Thank goodness.  At one point, S and I walked out into the lobby when she wanted to get some ice; with the door closed behind us, you couldn't hear a thing... magic I tell ya... magic.

This past weekend, the hotel was evidently still in remodeling and thus, the kitchen/dining room adjoined to the lobby was not quite ready for use, but it looks stunningly modern yet homely.

The only big minus?  Unless you are in town for business, there is no real touristy draw to Fremont in general nor that business park in particular.  If you're staying here from out of town, rent a car; there is little to nothing to do immediately in the area...
