Staff let us check in early since we got before our ETA and also let us check out late. Friendly and accommodating staff. Clean hotel, some nice facilities like a pool, hot tub, steam room, really nice workout room and a beautiful view of the city.

There was a loud event that went on all night super loud. We complained and asked for a different room they showed us one that was worse. The hotel was not full and they could have given us a room in the back away from the noise, instead of showing us a worse one.

Overall, I liked the property. There was just one thing that almost soured the experience, I was charged for the room when I checked in, and they pretended to charge me for the room again when I checked out. Since the bill wasn't that high, I could not have noticed it, but I did and produced a credit card stub to demonstrate I had already paid. That was enough, but it was an inconvenience nonetheless.
