I enjoyed my stay at this location. Kevin, who worked the front desk was incredibly helpful with giving me options to make me comfortable to telling me about their sister property so that i may have more options for the future. The rooms were warm with comfortable beds and a quiet surrounding. I would definitely stay again.

We've stayed in this hotel several times because of how convenient it is to downtown activities. This most recent time was to visit The Palace Theatre. The hotel is nice, but the rooms need updating. The last few beds that we had were pretty bad. The room was a bit shabby, but the beds definitely need to be replaced if nothing else. The rooftop restaurant has very good food, but the hours are inconsistent and they are clearly understaffed.

Spotless room. Easy check in. The staff made us feel so welcome and am so glad they recommended the 8Up rooftop bar and kitchen. Will totally stay again!

Room was quiet and clean with comfortable bed. It was hard to judge the neighborhood, weather was bad and no one was on the streets. Only disappointment was one morning there was no coffee creamer. Asked at the desk and was told if there wasn’t any, they didn’t have any. ?!

The room was very clean and well stocked. The staff encounters were very pleasant, and they were all very helpful. The hotel is very convenient for walking downtown and to local establishments. The in-house restaurant had outstanding food and was a great environment.
