Our stay was great. Easy to check in and out. Our room was very nice and the view was great. I love that we are right smack in the middle of everything. Restaurants are walking distance. The only thing I didn't like was the parking options. We paid $70 for 1 day overnight parking.

Perfect spot if you are looking to stay downtown. Close to everything. If you don’t want to pay the valet fee there is a parking garage across the side street for $20 day. Good breakfast at their on site eatery.

Woman who checked us in was very polite. Park in the structure nextdoor to avoid the $65 valet. Gave us free late checkout. No streaming options on TV was a bummer. Pool was nice but small.

A Great Hotel with Coffee Maker Issues

It’s a nice hotel. I liked it. The Kirig coffee does not work with outlet it’s next too. The outlet label states it’s limited to 7.5 amps and apparently the coffee maker needs more than that. Plugging into an outlet in the bathroom solved the issue, but it was frustrating for about 15-20 minutes while I problem solved.
