Liked: Staff & service
This location is less appeasing that other Hyatt place stays. The staff was excellent for sure. But the building itself is outdated and one of the two elevators didn’t work. So it took a long time to wait on the elevator. It’s located in a great area with lots of amenities nearby. I’d stay at this location again if i travel solo but with family or friends I’d probably pick a different location.
