The staff was friendly not as friendly as I would’ve liked when we took our pet. As the days went on they were very friendly with my pup but they could be more hospitable when checking in with a pet.

Amazing venue and views. Had one of the best rooms (1023). The rooftop was pretty although somewhat small. Super comfy beds, friendly staff, and walking distance to 16th street mall and other restaurants. Will go back soon. 10/10
