This was my third stay. The lobby and rooms are lovely - modern, clean. My room was pristine clean. This is the first time I discovered the fitness center, tucked away at the far end of the second floor, and was very impressed. On a previous visit last year, I made the mistake of going to the breakfast buffet - food was not edible, truly awful - but avoiding the buffet definitely increased my overall satisfaction with my stay. I’m also not a fan of the parking choices - expensive whether you valet park or park it yourself, and personally, I’m not a fan of having to call ahead to valet for my car - so getting to park at my student’s building during move-in weekend before towing had started also made thjs a more pleasant stay overall. Hotel itself is lovely - clean and modern.

Nice property. Only complaint is walls are thin and you can hear conversations of people walking down the hall. Major distraction if you are trying to sleep.
