Hotel was in a wonderful location, and there is a Starbucks onsite. Place was quiet and the Mountain View rooms had a beautiful view of the city and Mountains. You do have to pay for parking and the breakfast on site with a $20 Buffet option or you can order from a menu. Stay was quiet and we got out rest.

Room was clean, check-in was easy, timely, friendly. The only thing not ideal is the on-site dining - nothing that’s open all day, only at specific breakfast, lunch, or dinner times, which didn’t really work with our schedule.

A little on the expensive side at least on the day that I stay, but it is worth the extra expense. This property is very clean! I stay here once before and it was a good experience than too. Definitely one of my favorites in the area.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Hotel is really quite nice, especially the lobby area. The room was very nice, modern, laid out well, and clean. I liked the big TV too. I only gave it 4 stars because there are 2 things that let it down. First, you have to be a Marriott Bonvoy member to get access to the wifi. I know it's free to sign up, but it's still annoying. And second, the parking is not free, and even worse - it's handled by a third party, so you have to spend a bunch of time signing up for some stupid private party parking account online.
