Service was great, starting with the friendly valet employee. Room was nice and clean. Several dining options and bars nearby. The Walnut-Locust train stop is right by the hotel, so it’s a straight shot down to the sports complex if you’re in the city for a game. The parking garage is directly across the street from the hotel.
