We liked the hotel itself and the property. The staff was nice while we were there. We were charged for using mini bar (which we did not use) after we checked out.

**Valet parking is the safest option as the hotel is right downtown; the valet was very nice on our departure. The hotel had a very fun bar with signature cocktails. It also had a very busy restaurant that we did not try. ** Only problem was that the room didn’t have a way to make hot water for tea in the morning

Home away from home

At this point arrival is like homeboy from home. I spent more time here than I do with my actual home and I’m much more comfortable. Thank you to the entire staff for always being so warm and welcoming.

Looking for sleep? This may not be your place.

I ended up moving to a different hotel last minute-after a very long day because of the noise. The area in general is loud. They decided to deny a refund request. The sirens, cars and loud music nearby was not conducive to a restful place. If you’re looking to party-this may be your spot!

The area was more dangerous than I was aware of and so I did not feel safe staying there. I ended up booking another place.
