It was a great experience, I think the breakfast was really good as well. The rooms and views are really good, definitely would recommend this hotel. The service is a little slow, but it can be dealt with. Valet parking is horrible, they ask for money when it is already under the room rate, and they keep asking for your... More

The rooms are clean and some(not all) of the staff are helpful. The breakfast buffet was a nice included amenity. My major complaint is that the hotel valet lost our car keys. They delayed our day by 9 hours, which costs us to miss 2 planned events for that day. I wished management would do a better job of training... More

Excellent in every way, but if Motel 6 gives me the exact same internet for free, what justifies $15/night here? Sorry, but this cannot be justified to me. Other than that, this hotel is first class all the way. Breakfast was wonderful, and the facilities and service were first class.

The hotel staff and location, room and cleanliness was great. Free breakfast every morning was very good, and the nightly happy hour too! The only thing lacking was the limited gym facilities. Only 5 machines left a lot of people unable to work out...not a very well equipped room. I ended up not trying again after one morning with only... More

Its an older hotel so the overall appearance is a little dated but the level of cleanliness was outstanding. Maria did a wonderful job each day and would ask if... More
