Hotel was very cool - our room was great. I appreciated the texts letting us know about parking and checking in with us during our stay. I liked the bottle of water in our room and close to get places to eat. Try the wilder if you like gin drinks. Bed was comfy and we both slept great. Wouldn’t know the hotel was sold out it was nice and quiet. Nespresso machine in lobby for am with to go cups.
