Great staff and they were able to accommodate our early check in request. The room was spacious, but the lighting in the room could have been better. We had a view of a brick wall, but, overall the hotel is nice and clean.

Beautiful view of the Capitol from our room. The room was comfortable and clean. The location of the hotel is great. We walked to our concert at the Breese Stadium. A short walk to the market and State Street. Parking was $35. It’s a bit pricey. Very nice hotel in an awesome location.
