Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently: "This hotel was Awesome and staff was great!"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
Hotel was very nice, and the staff was always there to help. Valet attendants were super. They even went to the car and brought our baby stroller up to our 8th floor room when we forgot to get it out of the car. The hotel is close to a bunch of stuff to do. We loved it!
