Great place

Overall this is an excellent Hotel, the folks here are very nice. The Valet was great, not sure his name but he was great. Although in the morning, we were going to get breakfast, but because they closed in 20 minutes that sounded like a problem. Not usually the kind of person that gets mad about that, and overall it wasn't bad but just not a good look for a classy place like this. I would stay here again.

Stay was fine but a few delays.

Staff was very nice. Room was big and also clean. The room was not ready until 45 minutes after our check in time so we had to sit around in the lobby for a while. Also took over 40 minutes to get my car out of valet parking when we checked out.
