Property and facilities are nice. The charge to park is ridiculous seeing as you pay to stay the night and needing a place to park is common sense. Then the parking garage is under construction or roped off for whatever reason making it inconvenient to park in. The rooms were nice and clean but the design of the bathroom door leaves something to be desired. There is no privacy and that will be the reason I wouldnt book again. Having teenagers and adults, everyone needs privacy

Great service and clean, comfortable rooms! Location was great for the purpose of our trip. Breakfast included in the rate would have been perfect, BUT we were walking distance from great restaurants to try. We'll stay here again!

Check-In: Evening front end representative was warm, inviting, congenial. Explained all features of the facilities, check in process quick and trouble free; parking garage, lounge, et al. Outside perimeter, lobby, elevators, hallways and stairwells clean and well lit. Extremely classy. Outdoor pool was very inviting, but did not have time to avail ourselves of it. Rooms spotless, and ultra modern: King bed super comfy - sheets and blankets looked and smelled super clean and fresh. Room a/c - heat very responsive. Bathroom: I'm a big guy: so that tremendous shower with plenty of room for turning around was well appreciated. Various shower heads (overhead rain, or power nozzle on a hose - which is what I use in my home and not usually in motels/hotels was a pleasant surprise.) Shower controls needed some getting used to (no markings or instructions but intuitive enough), plenty of hot water. There is only one thing I can take minor issue with in the bathroom: square toilet bowls? I mean: it worked, it was clean, it flushed, but square? Found it a little awkward for a guy standing up to do his business. For proper aim and to avoid making a mess on the rim, a guy has to straddle the bowl to avoid splash. Other than that, rest of bathroom very roomy and modern. Two people can get ready and not be in each others way. Check out smooth and quick. Definitely worth the $129 weeknight rate. I would definitely stay here again. Philip M. Goldstein
