This place is absolutely amazing. Everything you could need is in walking distance. The only downside is it’s not very stroller friendly.

We love Congress Hall

We love Congress Hall. The hotel room is spacious and air mattress wide and comfortable. On Mother’s Day we were delayed with Valet Service as there was only 1 attendant for a period of time. We checked out early and were hoping for it to be held at the front desk, and there was no room. We were asked to check with the valet and he was swamped so we did not.
