I stayed here for 3 nights with my four young kids. The room was clean, comfortable and quiet at night. The location was perfect for us. We were able to easily walk to many of the sights, which was really nice.

Housekeeping never cleaned room, or bathroom, and left dirty coffee cups in bathroom sink. Cleaning staff finally came at 11:30 after calling front desk. Never replaced used towels and bath towels. Netflix did not work. Bday css as ke was delivered to room without plates and troops.

Did not like the fact there was no mini bar filled in the room. Most nice hotels have a late checkout as far out as 2:30. They kick you out at 12:30.

Besides me calling to ask about any incidental fee and them telling me there wasn’t one but I get to the front desk and him telling me it was $100, the hotel was very beautiful. Clean, great furniture and great service. I had a king suite and it didn’t have a microwave so that sucked. But overall I would recommend and come back.
