I’m glad I chose this hotel for my vacation. Initially, I was a bit skeptical when I made the booking, but as soon as I arrived, I knew I had made the right decision. The staff were exceptional, the room was perfect, and the amenities were top-notch. If I ever return, I already know where I’ll be staying!

This is not an aparthotel. It’s just a hotel. Don’t make my mistake in thinking you’re getting any kind of kitchenette.

New hotel, friendly staff, super bright and spacious rooms. Down side : it is LOUD! Room doors are loud, even when not slammed, noise travels, in room AC super loud!, breakfast is included and in brand new space/restaurant on LL BUT no hot water/tea available!!!! Odd as it is one of the easiest items to include. Valet is over the top expensive! But parking garage 24/7 is avail across the street for self parking. Great location and very nice hotel

Checking in and out took a while. Evidently Expedia didn't push through my reservation so I was told I didn't have one when I showed up. The check out took a while as well (roughly five minutes to turn in keys and get my invoice) and my Uber was getting close. Otherwise, a really great stay and very helpful staff.
