It's in a nice location and great room. It felt upscale. Only problem I had with the place is the paid parking, which was a valet service costing $38.

It was nothing special. Had to over pay for a room and nothing was included. Coffee? Extra. Breakfast? Extra. Grab and go? Extra from their "store". Also had to pay to park on the property. Very disappointed 😞

Lobby is beautiful, beds are awesome but rooms are small. Staff was excellent. I will say I was traveling with a service dog. I called in advance to make sure all ok. Upon check in I was told all ok with my service dog and no extra fees. However upon check out I was charged an extra $179.00. When I asked why I was told, “sometimes the pet fee is automatic. “ They refunded the amount but had I not checked I would have been charged.
