Great staff. Great room. They let us check in early and were extremely responsive to requests. Would definitely stay here again! Great location and view also.
Clean room, comfortable bed and very friendly staff from the check in staff to the cleaning staff who always struck up a conversation in the elevator. Would definitely recommend and stay again.
Love this location and everything about the hotel. For the first time, though, I noticed that things are starting to show wear, as there were issues with the shower door closing properly, and you could see basic wear around the room.
