From the moment we arrived, staff were amazing! Our valet driver made sure we knew the cost before choosing that option then happily helped us get a luggage cart and loaded our luggage. The front desk was amazing. Room was clean and we had a view from the 17th floor! Bed was so comfortable. I have lower back issues sometimes and this bed was so nice to sleep in. The hotel had tons of character and we would happily stay again.
