Was a nice hotel, felt like an apartment. It was also pretty private so that was nice. Just maybe a tad too expensive for what it is, you could probably find a nicer view for the same price. (We had a bay view room)

There was a gross potato chip smell on the 4th floor which permeated the room and literally made me nauseas. Other than that, the room was nice.
