It was a good location. The only thing I didn’t like about this hotel was the $25 service fee for every day. That’s a little excessive.

Highs: Staff was friendly and offered good advice on the area. The bathroom and high ceilings made things more pleasant in the room itself. Lows: No-in room coffee maker. Rooftop bar menu and service were lacking. Road noise from Washington St. permeated the room until well after midnight.

Classy and clean renovations. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. It's conveniently located 1 block away from King street, which has a plethora of dining and shopping options. I was there on the weekend, so I parked on the street, which was convenient and free for me.
