We chose this hotel for my husband’s birthday weekend. The room was spacious clean and trendy. The bed was so comfortable. The happy hour was excellent and the game room and bar on the second floor was fabulous. The customer service was phenomenal. They surprised my husband with a goody bag for his birthday which was the icing on the cake. The hotel is currently undergoing renovations but it was still a great stay.

The staff! Each staff were helpful, present and with great service. Kudos to Shea at the front desk as she was warm in her greetings, answered all my questions, and most of all a kind, helpful person. Great staff! Rooms always clean, always well prepared. They are transitioning from Virgin so updating g cafes etc. Didn’t notice.
