Hotel room was very ordinary and on the small size. Small dirty window looked out on courtyard that was unattractive and dark. Room was clean, bed was fine. Hotel was quiet. Only parking option is valet service for additional $42. Some seating in lobby but no water or snacks available for guests in common areas.

Staff was prompt and courteous. Valet Service was convenient. Room was clean But unfortunately our door did not seal properly and you could hear every noise in the hallway throughout the night.The room was very cold despite the windows being closed, and the heating turned to max, the fridge was also not working correctly and didn’t keep things cool. Pillows were about 2 inches thick so we used a towel for added comfort. The curtains were nice and dark I guess so we got a couple hours of sleep in the dead of night

Interior is dull, lacking in style. Disappointing for a property in this location and with this history. However, the property is clean, the Staff is excellent, everything is organized and efficient. It just lacks imagination.
