The lady at the front desk was so welcoming. The hotel is in close proximity to many restaurants. We were able to watch a fabulous firework show on the statehouse grounds from the window in our room.
The hotel was great as always. My only request would be multiple coffee machines in the lobby. Otherwise, it's perfect. Room is clean and spacious, bed is sooooo comfortable. I wish I had their sheets. You can't beat the walkability of the hotel, just a block off the Vista!
