The room was huge and immaculate, really very comfortable with a great bed and coffee/tea and snacks. We really enjoyed the roof top bar for drinks and an amazing view. We didn’t eat in the restaurant because this hotel is well located and there were many options near by. I would definitely stay here again, it was very enjoyable.

I recently stayed here and was blown away by how wonderful the experience was from start to finish! The rooms were spotless and beautifully designed, and the beds were incredibly comfortable—some of the best sleep I’ve had in a long time. The rooftop bar was absolutely amazing with stunning views, great drinks, and a relaxing atmosphere. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made me feel truly welcomed. I can’t recommend this place enough and will definitely be staying here again!

The front desk staff were very nice and informative. They called the room once we were all checked in just to make sure we had everything we needed. The 9th floor bar was fun and a beautiful view. The surrounding area had many restaurants and the hotel included Lyft rides within 3 miles. The TPA airport was less than 15 minutes too!
