The room is spacious and has an amazing view. The beds are comfortable and the free continental breakfast was unexpected but appreciated! Getting to the lobby from the underground parking garage was a little confusing, but once we figured it out, all was good. Maybe if there was a sign pointing you in the right direction, that might help?? Overall, a great experience and we would definitely stay there again.

The view from our suite was excellent, especially during a thunderstorm. We loved our stay. The only (very minor) downside was neither TV worked correctly. One had very low volume, the other had no picture but good volume. The location was very good, very easy walk to public transportation. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the A/C worked really well. The building security was Would definitely stay here again.
