Everything was great! We were cleared to check-in early which was amazing! Had a great happy hour, rooms with an incredible view of the city, and the entire staff was very kind and professional. Breakfast looked amazing too, but we had to rush without enjoying due to catching an early flight. Great stay!

Staff were very courteous! But non-participating guests of the "Rocky Run " should have been informed that the hotel had booked a large part of its rooms to the "Rocky Runners". It was NOT a relaxing stay.
