Staff was very nice and welcoming. I absolutely loved the shower and how the water pressure was so good! We were on the 16th floor and had a great view. We stayed in one of the upgraded rooms and it was pretty basic. It was a little dusty but the cleaning lady came and clean med the floor once I let her know. The streaming for Netflix was also out but we were given a comp on our parking in exchange for the streaming issue. It was a nice 3 days stay.

Liked: Staff & service
All of the staff were friendly and responsive. The air conditioning did not work properly in our room and they moved us to a new room. The hotel entrance area was not super clean. The rooms were a bit worn for the price point of this hotel. Another thing we did not like was the room lighting. It was very dim. On a better note the view from our room was wonderful.The location of the property was great and the area very walkable to restaurants.
