The room was very clean and modern looking, staff is friendly, and location is good. But some of the design decisions are strange. A shower curtain for a bathroom door and a bathroom counter that is far too narrow.

It was a nice new property. Overall the room was comfortable. However, the room setup was strange in that the bathroom was not separated from the sleeping area fully. There was not a solid wall separating them so light and sound from the shower and sink go to the sleeping area. This is not ideal for a family.

Amazing and very clean room with city views. Friendly staff. The only drawback was having to use valet parking at $40 plus tax for one night (although the valets themselves were great). Would definitely stay again.
