It was the predecessor to Embassy Suites.

As a child I remember turning on the LodgeNet and it said"Welcome to Napa and thank you for choosing Crown Sterling Suites we hope you enjoy your stay with us" then it went to Embassy Suites instead of Crown Sterling Suites.
Perhaps someone here can jog my memory.

This was about 5 years ago...had a business trip down there for 2 nights during the height of baseball spring training when a search for "hotels that don't suck" just showed everything sold out.
There is anew Embassy Suites around Jordan UT that has no Atrium.
