The location is perfect with excellent ambience. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Did not use the breakfast facilities nor the bar. Would have loved to have a microwave in the room. The shower pressure was on the lower side otherwise everything was excellent.

The rooftop lounge is a nice place to have a drink, and they have heaters but there weren’t very many of them and people were crowded around them because it was cold so we took our drinks back to our room. The robes in the room are a nice touch. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was good but the menu was small. The staff is very friendly. The hotel is located in downtown and is walkable to shops and restaurants.

Our room was on the lower level, which felt like a basement (room had no windows). The room itself was okay, nice pitcher of water and glasses set out for us, which was nice. Linens and towels were good quality and very clean. Bed was comfortable, we slept well. Couldn’t wash my hair in shower because rainhead had weak pressure and would have taken forever to rinse out shampoo. The lower level hallway to the room smelled a bit musty and seemed a little run down. Parking was a bit rough since it’s in a separate area from hotel and it was raining. Breakfast and coffee in the lounge was excellent. Staff was very nice. All in all we would stay again but maybe not get a lower level room.
