"Service above and beyond!"

From check in to check out, Arbon and the whole staff were so friendly and helpful. From valet parking, luggage assistance, directions to eating and even a helpful umbrella when it was raining. Our next trip will definitely be planned with this group of hotel professionals.

"Great two day stay"

The room we stayed in was a corner king room and it was perfect for us. Another chair in the room would have been handy but it was fine the way it was. The room was clean and well maintained. The doormen were especially helpful and pleasant. Thank you all for a great visit.
