Loved staying here as a classic stay compared to the convention hotel everyone else was at. Slept better than ever in this hotel! Great rooms, clean, great service. Had trouble getting through to the front or bell desks when I called from my room but they said they’d look into it. Would 100% stay again.

The location makes this hotel great. Didn’t rate the breakfast since there isn’t one included. There are multiple options within walking distance. The room has a Nespresso which was a nice feature. The hotel is elegant and classy. I’ve stayed multiple times and would stay again in the future.
