I enjoyed staying here. The staff was very nice. The room waa exactly as advertised. The amenities and finishings are very nice. My only concern was when i inspected the mattress there were hairs between the pad and protector. I dont know how they got there but they shouldn't be there. Overall a very nice place to stay.

Amazing, quiet, clean and central place with great views. I’ve stayed here multiple times but it’s the parking price that needs to be changed. They charge $8 a night for a underground parking which is not even gated or secured

The service at the front desk and especially in the restaurant was excellent. Our server went above and beyond and that included bringing a freshly brewed pot of coffee! We would definitely stay at this hotel again.
