Very nice hotel, located in a great area near walkable locations for eating, sightseeing, and shopping. The room was nice and spacious, bed and pillow got a 8/10 for me. Breakfast was included with the booking which we took advantage of (it was pretty good and filling). You do have to pay nightly for parking if you choose to bring your own vehicle or rent one (I think it was $28 a night). Overall, I had a great experience and the staffs were respectful and kind. I was happy to see they had Dove products in the bathroom. This was the first time I used a hotels bathroom bodywash.

The room was exceedingly shiny clean. The staff was very helpful. The only thing that stopped this review from being a 5 complete star is that our TV casting feature unfortunately did not work for our 3-day stay. We had asked for maintenance to come on the first night, yet they only came and took away our router on the second day morning without informing us the issue could not be resolved or anything.

This was an amazing stay. From the moment my flight got canceled I contacted the front desk manager - BRITNEY! She is a remarkable manager that made the best accommodations for me even though I was late for checking. I communicated with her and she made sure my stay was protected. Excellent stay, the breakfast buff was delicious, the waffles , fruits, bread everything I ate there was fresh. I also, got a $25 voucher (for my stay) to buy snacks from the hotel store and enjoy my flight back to NYC 🗽. Thank you ASHLEY, another amazing staff member - they have Free laundry services - ya’ll and the stay feels like a 4Star HILTON HOTEL! This was beautiful and thank you 🙏 ♥️💕 So glad I chowed this hotel, from Expedia.
