The hotel was clean, relaxing and beautiful. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The hotel also provided a wonderful experience for my dog. My only issue at the hotel was about the breakfast. At the check in process and at the restaurant, we were informed that the breakfast was included. The food and services at the breakfast area were excellent, but just at the time of checkout, we were informed that we had a credit of only $30 per day for breakfast for 3 people. In addition, the hotel doesn’t have any breakfast for $10. We had to pay for breakfast for every day we stay at the hotel and we felt frustrated for hidden fee and information.

Very nice rooms / hallways / common areas; only one of 3 elevators was working and even that was slow - these things happen but those elevators need renovation. Great location.

The shower had hair in it and the Malin and Goetz products were seemingly filled with something that oddly resembled Old Spice body wash. Also whatever cleaning product you're using in the rooms is way too pungent and intense. Staff was great though!

Our room was very clean, the restaurant and bar area was great and the experience was fun. The valet parking attendant was really good and the app to request your vehicle worked well. We walked to the Altria Theater which is only a short distance away.
