The hallways, bathroom vents and corners, and carpet around bed was dirty. It was also inconvenient that they took payment so many times during my stay instead of incidentals at the beginning and final price at the end.

Staff welcoming & helpful. Valet parking was well worth it as streetside parking was difficult near the hotel. Bed was very comfortable. Bathroom & shower spotless! Bonus was our corner room with a view of the Christmas festival & tree lighting going on. Enjoyed the art museum aspect as well. Just a 5 minute walk from DPAC & many restaurant choices. Would highly recommend!
