The buffet was not well attended to. There are two stations that can only be served by attendants but usually no one is around to help with them. One thing that would be easy to fix: the utensils for self serve are horrible and frustrating to use- a little tiny fork for the cornichons and a knife for the mustard? And you fish everything out of jars. Just tacky and poorly thought out. The tongs are slippery. Just poorly designed all the way around

Amazing stay! Everything was super smooth and thoughtful. Valet parking made things easy, and they even brought my food delivery right to my door. Overall, a perfect experience. I would absolutely stay here again if I have the chance.

Beautiful view of the Capitol from our room. The room was comfortable and clean. The location of the hotel is great. We walked to our concert at the Breese Stadium. A short walk to the market and State Street. Parking was $35. It’s a bit pricey. Very nice hotel in an awesome location.
