This hotel was beautiful. We were greeted out front with valet. Check in was super easy and our room was adorable. The art throughout the hotel is stunning. We had a little balcony that looked out on the terrace where they had fire pits and such. Our room was lovely, modern, and beautiful. Would definitely stay here again!

Nice quiet location, classy hotel, lovely room. The hotel is a bit dark for my taste, but that would probably be nice on a hot summer day, while we were there on a gray, chilly weekend. Pet fee is very steep…make sure to ask before you commit.
