Staff was very nice, valet were always quick and professional. My only complaint would be that it took a while to get towels and for them to dump my trash. We checked in friday morn and left monday morning and our room was never cleaned.

Everyone was very kind, courteous, and professional. I especially enjoyed the free shuttle. They allowed me to store my luggage after I checked out so that I didn’t have to haul it around with me on my last day

The room was great, but I really have to give a shout out to the valet staff! I was there for the winter storm and the valet staff really worked tirelessly to help me get safely back to my car. I would definitely stay here again.

Great staff, clean room, gorgeous hotel. Shuttle takes a while so plan well in advance. Fire alarm went off bc the bar tender burned something. Parking is $40+tip per day, so realistically add $50 to the cost of the room per night. Overall, if money isn’t an issue, this hotel is great!

Great staff struggling to accommodate locals in the snow storm. Excellent work by front desk, valet and food service. Excellent room and breakfast buffet. However, after waiting for nearly 2 hours for our dinner order, they ran out of food and brought me the wrong car.
