The AKA never disappoints! Customer service is always top tier, very clean, location was great too! Nothing but good things to say! Parking was easy too. There’s plenty of garages in the area. We only paid $40 for the weekend and it was walking distance from the hotel. A good 5 min walk.

Amazing!!! Clean and modern. Room was spacious. Balcony off of the king room was very nice. Such a relaxing feel inside and out. Such classy great service from the doorman to the front desk staff. Split-level lobby felt like entering a mid-century modern home. Breakfast in the restaurant was calming and the service was impeccable. Can't wait to return in a few months and check out the bar. 🤗

We loved the size of room and location to where we like to go. A mini fridge would be nice. A little loud with ambulances and police, but that is to be expected in large City . We would stay again when in town.

Only issues are the pillows and the HVAC. Pillows are too firm for my neck and compared to other hotels at this price price point. The HVAC was constantly making noises and did not cool down the rooms properly.
