The hotel was good. Staff were professional and nice. The building was under construction and did not have a lot of amenities. Like no gym but there was bikes, water/tea, breakfast, and a little hangout section. The room was nice and clean along with the bathroom. Everything was good!

Amazingly clean room, smelled brand new, staff was amazing and friendly, location was easy to find, self parking right next door or across the street, valet option available, and breakfast was great with a wide array of options. My only complaint is the bed being a little too firm and pillows too soft. Then being right next to the elevator when people were coming in at all hours of the AM (2-7) and being loud/yelling. The rooms aren’t very sound proof and no loud AC to hide any outside noise like at other hotels. The central AC worked great compared to those below the window units do, though! Our room was cooled off in no time and stayed cool!

The property was great, clean, well lit, my executive king suite was amazing and had a great view of the city. Everything was within walking distance. The breakfast was just ok. There was a lot of variety, but it was lacking breakfast meat like sausage or bacon. The staff was friendly and helpful. I was a little concerned about the lack of check in during the fire "evacuation". My husband and I walked down from floor 12. I think the "evacuation" was over, but no hotel employee was waiting at the bottom and there was no real check point. We walked off to breakfast and no one contacted saying where are you or gave us the all clear. Other than that, our stay was excellent 4.9 stars

The property was very clean to include lobby areas, hallways and the rooms. The breakfast was limited as they didn’t have meats during my 4day stay but did serve your typical continental breakfast options otherwise. I did NOT like that the room did not have a mirror outside of the bathroom as there is nowhere to look at your full body when getting dressed which was extremely annoying since the bathroom mirror is waist up access. Otherwise I loved the hotel, the location and the service of everyone.

Good except: 1) breakfast was a joke-closing at 9am, 2/5 days no coffee and 2/5 days no milk in espresso machine, out of pastries, out of eggs…. 2) fire evacuation - we walked down 16 flights of stairs, pushed open the 1st floor exit door to find ourselves in an indoor construction site! Very unsafe if evacuating. 3) they take $80 a day ‘in case’ and refund it 5 bus days after check out. Could do better

Breakfast is just average, Most of the staff was nice but two of the women at the front desk are just awful. The room was fluffed every day, not cleaned just fluffed, better than nothing. Manager tried,I guess to make things better, but it wasn't enough for the way the check in was handled by the older woman at the front desk. She made this a bad place to be for 5days. I was made to feel unwelcome, she told me I would just have to figure it out and find a new hotel. This all because she refused to believe she was putting in a bank card number wrong. Only thing done to " make it right" was to still charge me extra money after we left.

I like the lil kitchen setup in the room. The laptop stand was also cute Pillows were a tad too soft and I don’t think my phone work. The 1st night there was no hot water and the maids were great! Followed instructions to the letter!! It was an enjoyable experience that was heavy on security.
