My business partner and I stayed 2 nights. The property is beautiful, clean, comfortable, and had all the amenities needed, including a nice gym and work spaces. Across the board, the service was exceptional -- everyone was professional, friendly, going above and beyond, and who you could tell were passionate about their jobs -- from Chris at the front desk who provided us with great restaurant recos to Dana and all the servers we encountered at The Bauer. Kudos to the culinary team on great menus and execution...we had delicious meals at both breakfast and dinner. I look forward to staying there again. Keep doing what your doing! It doesn't go unnoticed.
