Pretty but pricey parking

The hotel is pretty however i did not anticipate having to pay $50 a night for parking and the bathroom is an open concept so zero privacy. Only thing you get is a sliding door for the toilet but the shower can be seen by anyone in the room unless you are on the bed staring directly ahead. Was fine for my husband and I but someone coming with a friend may not appreciate have zero chance for privacy.

Good hotel, close to campus

Had a good stay, that was really conveniently located to campus. The bar and restaurant downstairs are great, but checking in is a little confusing for the AC side of the hotel (compared to the Otis) since the lobby is on the second floor, and there is no bellman to help with luggage from the valet.

Good Location

The service was excellent and the room comfortable. Seems to have been a little more pricey than some of the other hotels but most likely due to location, which is why we chose it. The location was great for the venue we were visiting. The restaurant on site was decent but really pricey as were the drinks.
