You will love this hotel- lobby area (morning coffee, evening wine hour, plenty of seating), very spacious gym, and the rec room (basketball, bowling lanes, games, etc)- made for a fun long weekend. I loved the valet crew/system. You use a QR code and the guys bring up your vehicle quickly with a smile on their face. The price is a bit much ($28 a day plus tip) but it was super convenient. All of the staff (housekeeping/hostess/valet/etc) were all very friendly. It made for a nice trip!

Beautiful place to stay, tad bit expensive for the occasion. But the wife loved it. So I guess it was a success.

Nice and comfortable stay

Stayed for one night and loved the ambiance, and comfort. We ordered room service from Katherine's and food arrived within the hour. Nice sitting area in the lobby. Kid friendly. Walking distance to many bars and restaurants.
