Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Great Stay"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
It was great. Check in was simple. Our room was not ready as we were early. Went off to see a show, got a text that our room was ready while on the way to the show. Came back, everything was ready for us. Room was great, bed comfortable. All of the staff, front desk and valet, were courteous and friendly. Will definitely stay here again.
