Great stay in great location
Front desk people and breakfast hosts were phenomenal, refill of towels and bathroom tissue not great but fixed when requested. Overall a great experience, especially the clean feel of all areas. We will be back. Thank you.

Was centrally located between Union Station, tourist attractions and a nice selection of restaurants. The room was clean, staff is friendly. Overall, a good stay. I would definitely stay there in the future. They accommodated a late check out. My only minor gripe was that after requesting and being granted a late check out - the housekeeping still came knocking several times. I have found this to be very common that the front desk and housekeeping don’t communicate these things. In fancy hotels it rarely happens but in moderate hotels, always. Good solid hotel though.
