    great shower
    limited breakfast options

    The location was convenient and the room

    was spacious and well-furnished. I particularly loved the shower. it had great pressure and left my hair feeling very soft. However, the breakfast options were a bit limited and could use more variety.

    Breaking it down, plain and simple

    My stay was pleasant, with a fantastic breakfast featuring made-to-order options. The shower in my King Room was a highlight—it had excellent pressure and left my hair feeling soft. Although the staff's responsiveness could improve, the hotel’s location is superb, making it convenient to explore. I'd recommend it for a nice getaway!

    navigation challenges
    service inconsistency

    Really enjoyed the breakfast options. Made-to-order items tasted fresh and the buffet had a good variety. The shower pressure in my room was excellent. it made my hair feel super soft. Spacious room layout contributed to comfort. On the downside, the HVAC unit was pretty loud, making it hard to relax sometimes. Also, navigating through the hotel could be tricky at times. Overall, service was decent but could have been more attentive, especially at peak times.

    The decor was beautiful and welcoming, with charming details that made the stay feel special. The accessible features were convenient, and I appreciated the thoughtful layout for ease of movement. It added to the overall comfort of our stay.

    More options for firmer pillows would be great.

    great rooftop restaurant

    Great Location with Room for Improvement

    Enjoyed a lovely stay in a modern suite just steps from downtown attractions. The rooftop restaurant offered excellent meals, and staff were consistently friendly. Just a heads up, the HVAC unit was quite noisy, so consider earplugs if you're sensitive to sound.

    Vue Rooftop Restaurant, indoor heated pool, responsive management team

    Parking arrangements can be confusing due to the extra charge!!! Maintenance needs attention to issues like noisy HVAC units and privacy concerns with bathroom sliding doors!!! Better communication about costs is essential when charging for snacks!!!
