The stay at the Lancaster was wonderful. Room was comfy and beautiful, and all of the details were appreciated, from good coffee in the room, to robes, and complimentary items everywhere. Food in hotel restaurant was good, breakfast was also good, though the same both days i was there. Neighborhood decent, was there for business so did not explore much. Would definitely stay again
