Great stay, staff all great. Great fitness center. No pool or hot tub. Parking is self park in a garage nearby $20 or valet $35. Rooftop bar is a nice vibe, great bartenders, able to handle a non alcoholic drink without skipping a beat. Food is pricy compared to the local options all around. Valet team out front sets the bar high for everyone else inside. Top notch service!

The staff here is amazing especially Johnathon DeFore =). So helpful, nice and considerate all done with an amazing smile. It was later on in the evening and we needed an item for our room and they went above and beyond to assist us. Also, the valet staff rose to the top to assist us with our bags, dogs and goodies. Just little help like this goes so very far especially after being in the car for 10+ hours. Keep up the good work all- and thanks for keeping it personal despite being bought out by a huge hotel group.
