Staff was supper nice and hotel very clean. Would stay here again. Stayed for Valentine’s Day only 1 night. Only minor issue was we were on 6th floor on end of the hallway and it was a little noisy either from the rooftop bar or the one beside the hotel.

The rooms were nice and clean. But it just wasn’t something I was looking for. I wanted something higher end that wasn’t catered to mainly business people. It would be a good place to stay for someone who was traveling alone but it wasn’t ideal for a family stay.

The staff was great. It’s always nice to feel like you’re important. From the moment I walked into the hotel that’s how they made feel. We had dinner on the rooftop. And the service there was also great. The one downside though was the dessert’s. Great dinner but the dessert options were a little lacking.

The parking deck was full. Then the remote didn’t work and we had to be moved to another room and then someone stole my purse. Then they had the nerve to call and ask me to pay a cleaning fee for having decorations in my room. After my purse was stolen and they have no cameras

Our stay was great. The rooms are extremely clean, and the hotel looks nice all around. The only downside is the price. It is a little bit pricey, but that might be because of its location.
