100% RECOMMEND
100% recommend! This hotel was so nice, the room was cold ,very comfortable beds. The receptionist was really nice he made the stay rememberable the valet parking guys were also very nice. Theres a dinning area down at the lobby, Went for a ENHYPEN concert and it was just 3-5 minute walking distance from the hotel so that was definitely a plus. Hopefully we will be staying here again soon! Did i mention there is also a pool?!

First all I didn’t know I had to pay for parking.$58 is ridiculous for overnight parking for 1 night. The bed wasn’t comfortable at all and hard time falling asleep. The staff was okay. I want stay at location again .

Big 3 Event Weekend
Hotel was one block away from event. Hotel was nice, clean and pet friendly. Rooms were comfortable. No microwave. Breakfast was better than most serving both pancake and waffle option. In hotel bar/ restaurant was ok. Served burger, wings, pizza and chessesticks, so it was convenient. Location had several restaurants in the area but didn't visit any of them. Enjoyed the weekend with my family. Parking valet a little pricey but worth it. Hotel has its own private parking lot and don't have to worry about public parking lots that start new day at 2 a.m. in the morning.

Nice hotel but
The hotel is in a great location very close to the concert I was attending. The staff at the front desk were nice friendly and accommodating. I had 3 issues one my air conditioner in my room wasn’t cooling properly. My second issue it was very hard to get additional face towels I requested them multiple times before I received them. My last issue was the last day of my stay house keeping was at my door at 8 am asking me what time I was checking out. This was a huge inconvenience for me
I already knew check out time was 11 I had an alarm set to wake up in plenty of time. Then the lady came back again and asked what time I was leaving or was I staying longer at 10 am I was already getting my things together to leave. I felt very rushed out which I did not appreciate at all.

This location was nice and clean. Check-in was easy, and the front desk ladies were kind, warm, and welcoming. However, I did have a minor question on the Saturday before checkout, and the gentleman working the front desk seemed bothered and spoke over me before I could finish my questions. I understand he hears the same questions over and over, but tone is everything. The morning of our checkout, there was an awful noise from 8-10 AM, and we were not able to sleep in.

Not for Business.
I was on a business trip. There was not place to hang clothes except the the towel hook in the bathroom.
