The room was perfect. Very clean and super comfy beds. Location was ideal for the concert we were in town for as the venue was only a couple of blocks away. The only thing I had a problem with was having to pay for public parking which was $25.00 a night. Parking fees should be discounted or included with your stay.

The hotel is lovely, the room was nice too. The room is rather cold this time of year, considering that a whole wall is window that isn't double paned. This wouldn't be a problem if the heater didn't have loud clanking noises whenever the heat is turned on. It kept us up, so we had to leave the heat off. Also, the restaurant looks like a nice sit down restaurant, but it turned out to be a normal Continental breakfast. Not necessarily a bad thing, but I was expecting something different from the look.
