The breakfast was amazing, great Tiffany stain glass to look at while eating. Parking was so easy, and staff were very friendly. Room was clean, a little small but worked great for what we need it for, loved the full kitchen. Will return every time we are in town.

Brand new place just opened in May. The staff here is so wonderful and I am sure that in time the few hiccups I encountered will be eliminated, especially the parking. Maybe it was just signage.

Great location -- needs a few fixes
Had a one bedroom suite. The hotel is in an excellent location and is pet friendly. Pet rates were steep -- $75 per night. I found this rate outrageous given that they only clean every other day. Was recently opened and the staff was not really sure of what they were doing. Breakfast was across the street and was understaffed with a choice of 3 breakfasts and insufficient seating for peak times. Bathroom in room was odd -- toilet was high off ground and shower was super slippery with no spot for personal items except for the shower floor. No bar in shower. Kitchen in room was well stocked with cooking implements. Can't use stairways in hotel because they only for emergency use so had to take the elevator each trip.

Liked the overall ambience. Art is exceptional. Combo washer/dryer in room is nice touch.. Room furniture seems cheap and is very bland. Didn’t like musty smell in hallways and particularly on elevators. . Bathroom door hit edge of bed when opened.
