Very comfortable and quiet hotel in a nice area. We appreciated the evening snacks.
The pillows could use replacement, and more room darkening options on the windows would be a good idea.
Overall a great stay and we would go back!

When leaving, the front desk agent chased me out of the door and made me scream my room number to him because he thought I was checking out. Not a very safe way to handle the privacy of guests.

The only thing I regret is that there is no refrigerator in the room, but everything else is great. If you're okay with a light dinner, they offer a complimentary food with wine and hors d'oeuvres. It saved me a lot of money.
