10/10 Excellent
"Very clean, well kept hotel, I entered near midnight and it was safe and well-lit outside at the valet entrance. Bed was clean and good sheets + pillows. Very quiet. Felt safe as a single woman. The one thing that was weird was that I left my room for an early meeting at 7:15am, and when I returned at 9, staff had already been in my room and made the bed, threw out the soap and my plastic mug. I found this weird and uncomfortable because I had not checked out yet - how would they know I exited the room? Also, I felt bad using the room after they'd already made the bed and thrown things away/cleaned up. Not very welcoming. It's too early to go checking rooms at that hour, I'd understand if it was 10 - 11am. Lobby is nice for sitting and working as well. Good free wifi."

"We liked our room, but the bed was way too short for us senior with not-great legs. I would ask for a room with a higher bed. Other than that, it was fine and easy to locate. The staff was efficient and cordial both on checking in and out. Parking at $82.00 is awfully steep, especially for those of us on a fixed income."
