Wonderful hotel and staff! As soon as I pulled up, I was greeted by the friendly valet and then as I checked in, the front desk personnel were great too. Everyone was super friendly and accommodating and the room was nice with great views of the city. I will most definitely be back!

Amazing. Checked in at 3. Valet was great and front desk. Jennifer at the front had put me and my daughter on the manor side. The room was on the 5th floor and the bathroom had sub way tile and the teal theme in the room was very clean. All staff was kind. Server in lounge was kind to get diet cokes for us during the late hours. There was a conference going on and they were very busy. The maintenance guy and security guy took their time giving my daughter and i a run down on the whole hotel. They were spot on and made our night. Tk you. Room service was hot. On time and yummy. Tk u. Will be coming back

This was our 10th anniversary celebration and the hotel upgraded our room upon arrival. The decor with old charm and chic new finishes is pure class. Not the cookie cutter experience. Walking distance to everything. Staff warm and inviting. Simply wonderful from start to finish.
