Room was great; the breakfast was the best hotel complementary breakfast I’ve ever had. From the front desk staff checking us in to the ladies holding open the doors for us and the amazing breakfast staff our stay was amazing and felt like a night away at a getaway rather than just a night in the city! Thank you all and we will be back!
