"This was the perfect stay for family traveling in from around the US. Easy location for multiple airport trips, space for everyone to eat together, and large comfortable bedrooms. The play space for the 3 year old was more than perfect, with toys and books! We would stay here again. Thank you!"
"Really enjoyed our stay! We made reservations at the speak easy, cool private bar area but, the waitresses weren’t overly friendly. Enjoyed it was in walking distance of a lot of things we did. Loved the key card to access elevator for security purpose. The coffe shop in the hotel was good as well!
Room was nice and clean! 10/10 stay! "
