NCAA Lacrosse Tournament

Moved into this hotel after a stay in a disgusting hotel near the airport. This hotel is in a great location to walk to great restaurants and shops. We were put in a newly renovated room which was perfect....clean and spacious. Can't say enough great things about the staff who were extremely nice and helpful. If I had to pick one negative, I would say that the parking fee is a little steep. But the valet service is impeccable.

Excellent location, very nice lobby, very helpful staff. The room was good but I'd expect more from a 4-star hotel. Room service was excellent.
