Hotel is fairly conveniently located, although vicinity does not feel safe, especially at night. Not a lot of street parking but hotel has own multistory parking attached to the building. Staff is great, very helpful. Breakfast is included in the stay, nice lunch room with lots of space and cool layout. Amazing pool with stunning view of downtown skyline. Unfortunately Poolside bar was closed all the time and no restaurant at the hotel or nearby. Our room was spacious but not very clean and required some upgrades, bathtub was a disaster all scratched with paint coming off all over the place. Room had fridge, stove and big microwave which was definitely a big plus.
