Excellent location. Superb service by Chico at front desk and Rebecca in restaurant. Food, drinks, pizza delicious. Inconvenient no food between 2:00 to 5:00. Have stayed here multiple times. Hotel still needs to significantly improve the housekeeping in the rooms in several respects. Benefits of stay this time outweighed drawbacks of housekeeping and limited dining hours.

Emeline is Amazing!

Beautiful hotel. Pleasant from the moment we checked in. We were greeted at door with luggage cart and provided refreshments at check in. Two king bedrooms with living room was perfect for our family of 5. Bathroom was spacious and a plus that toilet had separate door (this is a huge plus for families all trying to get ready at the same time). Location was perfect- walking distance to market, King Street shopping, and a ton of great restaurants. Hotel had a great restaurant, coffee shop, and outdoor fireplace at night to relax. I highly recommend!

Great weekend stay

Most of the stay was great. Front desk was helpful. Room was perfect, comfortable and straightened every day. Bed was comfortable. Bar was lively, with good choices. The house wine was very good. Got some apps to take to the room which were perfect. But several systems were down often. Central coffee makers did not work. Restaurant closed due to pos issues. The system issues didn’t damper our stay but would have been a 5 star without.
