One thing i wanna point out is Todi was THE most helpful person and THE best representative of this establishment. Meeting her was the highlight of our stay. She’s always there and always working hard from day to night. I would stay here again if i knew she was going to be our server. Todi for the win.

This is an amazing hotel. From the moment we pulled yup to the establishment until tune moment we left, the stars were so welcoming, inviting, and helpful. I took my girlfriend for her birthday and mentioned to Joy that we were there for her birthday. We wake up the next morning and there was a birthday card for my girlfriend waiting at the door. Thank you for going about and beyond to help ensure that our stay was absolutely amazing and personable.

I really like this hotel. Service was great, room was really clean, and it has a nice aesthetic. I run hot and the AC kept me cold so thats a huge plus for me. Unfortunately the hot water wasnt working later on during our stay. We were told it had something to do with the storm. The had a plumber rush out to fix and got it up and running. Receptionist and staff were all very polite. Its located in the middle of downtown so once you valet, you really dont need your car anymore, you can walk everywhere.

Modern hotel with a very sophisticated vibe. Love the concept. Would have left a 5 star review, if it wasn't for the no hot water for more than 12 hours. Other than that, rooms are super comfortable, staff is great and would stay here again.
