Comfortable and Fancy!

Very good hotel to stay with family, because there are kitchenetts and the inroom washer&dryer. The neighborhood is very quiet, and there are lots of places to dine in or shopping flashly. The most favorable was the free breakfast in the Gem museum right across the building!

Great spot

This is a lovely spot. It was quiet, basically a studio apartment with a washing machine. And an easy walk to a coffee shop, bakery, 7-11. The signs inside said they will soon have a Mediterranean restaurant as well.

LOVED THIS HOTEL IN EVERY WAY!

This hotel FAR EXCEEDED my expectations. I selected this hotel for a girls shopping weekend and everyone was absolutely amazed at what a wonderful selection I had made. It was sparkly clean, comfortable, beautiful windows and the included breakfast was the biggest treat. Just hit reserve and enjoy a fabulous urban environment getaway with easy parking and complete safety.

Suggestions

The place is comfortable although the rooms are small. Suggestions are: Open the restaurant at 7:30 am instead of 8:00 am. All the pillows were way too thick and they had no other pillows available. The blankets were too light and the gym didn't have enough equipment in it.
