Great location and friendly, accommodating staff. Room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The water station was out of order on the 7th floor which was inconvenient but the staff provided extra water.

For management I was a bit disappointed in the lack of space to place and keep open one normal sized bag for each of us. I used the bench and she used the chair. A luggage rack would have worked and there was room for one. I would have asked for one if I was staying longer. The hanging area is very small and it made it a challenge to access the safe.

The hot tub and rooftop lounge were advertised but unavailable which was disappointing since that is why we chose this place. When inquiring about this we were offered some free drinks which was nice.

This property was great. The location is right next to Little Italy with tons of food options and other places are only 5-10min drive away. The facilities aren't clean and well managed and the staff was very friendly.

At $500 per night, this hotel was overpriced for what was delivered. It was clean, quiet and in a good location, but $65/night for valet parking and nearly $100 for breakfast for two in the lobby restaurant was ridiculous. We ate breakfast in the lobby restaurant the first morning strictly out of convenience, but there are many other cheaper and better options close by. Given so many other options in the area, I probably would not stay here again.
