The people who work here are very nice. It's a nice hotel. But the only microwave is at the front desk. So if you want to heat up some food you have to ask them to do it at the front desk and it's embarrassing

This great location just a couple of blocks from the Capital Building allowed me access to several eating places to choose. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. As for the staff, they were very friendly and willing to help with any needs that I had. I enjoyed the view from my room of the Capital.
