It's a really beautiful hotel with amazing in-room workspaces and has easy access to stroll downtown when you need to unwind after a day of meetings. All the amenities are there, from Starbucks to solid BBQ, a full bar, and sundries to take upstairs in your room. The hostess was also super helpful and professional.

This hotel was great, however my room did not cleaned. All three trash cans were full and I went to front desk and was told they would get someone up to clean because my room was not on the list for cleaning. This was on Sunday and I had been there since Friday.

The property itself was very clean and easily accessible. Very nice facility. Did not appreciate staff knocking on my door on the day of departure, waking me, to ask what time I would be checking out. Especially considering that check out time was not until noon.

Our suite 220 was chilly, and you must request room service. However, very close to most places of interest, and great BBQ restaurant in the same bldg.

We did a one night stay here as part of our drive back home from a week long trip. It was a good spot to stop, easy to park, check in and out was a breeze and we were in our room within 10 minutes. The 2 bedroom worked great for the family overnight. Additionally, the attached Smokehouse restaurant was super convenient, we were able to order and take to-go food up to the room to eat!
