"My husband and I wanted to have a romantic weekend getaway. The Vendue was a great addition to our mini adventure."
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5

The staff were very kind and inviting. The hotel was clean, and vibrant with modern art. We stayed in a King suite. The room was nice and service was excellent. The only complaint was the sewage smell coming from the bathroom. The smell would come & go. There is construction next door so this is to be expected.
