Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's excellent location near downtown and event venues, along with the helpful and friendly staff. Many found the beds comfortable and the rooms spacious.

Valet parking was convenient but sometimes costly, and elevator wait times were a minor inconvenience.

I could tell that my room was renovated, but my main issue was with the shower seal not properly closing. The shower would leak water all over the floor. Not only was it a hazard, but it was uncomfortable to step onto a wet floor or a soaking wet towel that was trying to soak up water.

The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the location was excellent. The interior of the room was clean and comfortable. However, I did want to note a couple of concerns from my stay. The window in our room appeared to be either dirty or possibly damaged, as we were unable to see out of it. There were signs in the lobby mentioning ongoing renovations to the windows, but to my knowledge, this was...

Pros (+) From the time I arrived until my departure the staff was the best. All questions were addressed on the spot. They were able to direct me to some of the best eating locations and their restaurant was one of the best I've experienced.

Pros (+) Everything about the hotel was nice. Normally I wouldn't stay in such a pricey hotel but all the hotels in the area that weekend had the prices jacked way up so I thought, "might as well get a hotel that's worth that money" Staff is very friendly and accomodating and it's so close to so much great stuff in town
Cons (-) The breakfast isn't complimentary so beware. It's totally setup like a free breakfast but then you get the bill for $16... i was kind of shocked by that. I would have eaten somewhere else had I known that

Pros (+) Location and most of recent improvements were very nice. Staff was beyond helpful! We did not mid the renovations in progress.
Cons (-) The change to the bathroom doors is a concern. There is very little privacy. We were a group of friends that needed that privacy. The door is a barn-door type and so it is never sealed shut. It's beautiful, but not a good decision for a hotel. In hindsight, we should have gotten two rooms - maybe that is why they put up those doors.
