LikedBreakfast ok. The eggs were not good. They were bland and runny. Ran out of bacon.. There was a table wirh loud children that hindered our breakfast enjoyment A waffle station would be nice!
“Perfect weekend.”
LikedThe service is alway excellent as is the food. The facility is beautiful and perfectly located in the theater district. You can walk to everything. The hotel has an excellent art collection.
DislikedWe love this hotel.
“I would definitely return to this hotel. It felt comfortable, safe, and accommodating in every way.”
LikedI loved the breakfast options, dining room, and length of time it was open. I loved how helpful and welcoming the bellmen were each day that I left and returned. I loved how kind and attentive the hotel restaurant staff were. I loved the central location of the hotel downtown. We were able to get to mostly every place on foot.
DislikedThe only issue that I experienced was a long wait time for the shower to get hot, but it got there, and it was a small inconvenience given how well everything else was about our stay.
