Nice room and hotel,although paid extra for view on main street and it was very noisy and we were on 5th flr. Also,wasn't happy had to enter shower next to toilet instead of door opening on right side by wall. Clearly it was installed backwards and we had to squeeze past toilet to get in and out. Good thing we are average sized people. We weren't reminded at check-in of free breakfast and spent money every morning at their coffee cafe. If you visit and want to sleep in,get a room in back otherwise nice.

The hard product here, the room itself, is actually pretty nice. The hotel was recently renovated, and it shows in the room. The lobby area is large, but could use some work. The real issues are the service. The hotel bugs you endlessly before check in to fill in an online pre-check. When I got to check in, the hotel staff completely ignored this. When I pointed this out to the hotel staff, I received a rude response. The one service request I made, for more pillows, was not made the first time. The hotel tries to nickel and dime you for any late or early check-in check out. The gym could seriously use some work. There was only one working treadmill, one of the exercise balls was broken, and the space is very small.

Great location, beautiful city. Very walkable and safe, most comfortable beds ever. Beautiful view of the river from our room on the 8th floor! Friendly check-in, got great advice from the front desk about free parking on the street. Just make sure you understand the rules. Wonderful pool area on the second floor level, with in-water foam chairs for sunning and a bar at poolside. Late night high-quality bar attached with a sophisticated bartender to meet your needs.

The staff was AMAZING and super friendly. I booked for my birthday. The first room was a standard King abs there was hair all in the bed, reported to front desk and they immediately compromise and upgraded. The next room was bigger .. there was still 2 pieces of hair but I was so tired from the ride and everything we just let it go. Out of 3 elevators, only 1 worked so there was always a wait and a lot of people on the elevator ALWAYS. Other than that, the location was perfect, parking isn’t horrible, and the staff was magnificent

Nice stay

Older hotel but in good shape, balconies are non-accessible. Super comfortable bed, View was nice from our 13th floor room. AC went out in night - needed to call maintaince - they foxed it in about ½ hour after calling. Bar drinks were fantastic - food was just so-so. Location is just south of main historical district, but still close enough to walk nearly everywhere.
