The staff was very nice, the food is great in the restaurant. My only issue is the parking, it’s expensive. I paid $61 to park overnight. I didn’t expect it to be that much.

Excellent Spot in Downtown
It was fantastic! Very cool hotel, excellent service and great lobby with restaurant and coffee shop. I sorta wish they had more drawers for clothes and hooks for used towels but that’s a really small deal. Would recommend.

Beautiful hotel & comfortable room
This neat hotel is less than 1 mile easy walk to the downtown area. The room was spacious and clean. I would have preferred a fridge and microwave instead of a stocked mini bar. No coffee maker in the room, but free coffee downstairs and fancy coffee for a charge. Cute bar on main level too, I didn’t get to try it as I was meeting up with friends elsewhere. Parking in adjacent lot was easy.
