The staff were excellent-gracious, kind and wanting to go above and beyond with customer service. This is definitely a hotel to stay if you enjoy impeccable customer service. The one item that was less than stellar was that my room hadn't fully been cleaned yet, but I was doing early check in. Fast Eddy-Bellhop, Thurston & AJ-concierge and Francisco at the Ambler were FANTASTIC!

It was nice and clean. . Good location. A few things is the bathroom needs a fan he steams up the whole room with a shower, the parking is ridiculously priced and the restaurant is not great food for the money in my opinion. They need a little shop with coffee, drinks, muffins quick grab and go. It was a nice stay though.
