It was a nice room but My room was not properly cleaned and I paid for two queen beds and they gave me two full beds, Also I couldn't figure out why my room smelt like a litter box and found a corona bottle under my bed but I still don't know if that's why the room smelled. Customer service was wonderful I can at least say and the hotel was very quiet and clean in and around common areas of the hotel and outside.

This property is modern, super comfortable, restaurant bar - it can be a conference hotel or a family vacation. Parking, valet, layout is all so efficient, convenient and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Online check in and room highlight guest safety and security. Nice lobby bar that can be as business-like or as casual as guests make it. Great stay.

Toilet wouldn’t flush, shower wouldn’t drain, valet was incredibly slow, front desk wasn’t very nice. The best part of the stay was the coffee shop and their employees.
