8/10 Good

The hotel staff was extremely friendly and very helpful, thank you Jonathan. Check-in was smooth and quick. Our room was comfortable. We only stayed one night. But the hotel was the perfect location for what we needed. We got there too late for the vallet parking, but there was a parking garage that was secure around the corner, which worked out perfect.
