$40.00 “amenity” fee is a bit ridiculous. If you offered coffee and water on every floor so I didn’t have to wait to get my fist cup- maybe then it would be worth it. But to go all the way to the lobby to a sub par presentation no thanks. The rest of the inclusions are unnecessary and in this day just puts a bad taste in people’s mouths.

Excellent stay overall. This was my second time here and it didn’t disappoint. The rooms are immaculately clean and decorated so cool. The staff was consistently friendly and professional, with special thanks to S, Chris, Nick, Calvin, and Jeff at valet. Everything felt smooth from check-in to check-out. It’s the perfect location, and I have to highlight the room service. We’ve ordered almost everything off the menu and not one thing missed. I’m absolutely staying here again!
