Nice place
1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not worth the money
The staff was very nice and friendly however, we paid $500 to stay here for one night. We had a charity event up the street. I feel like this hotel took advantage of the event being in the area, which is kind of sad since it was a cancer charity event. Next weekend, the same room is only 265 . After paying $500 when we opened up our windows of our room, they overlooked the roof with two air-conditioning vents right outside them not worth the money. They did end up moving us, but would not be returning here.

8/10 Very good

Convenient hotel to stay at before a gate game allows hotel guests to enjoy a pregame with their friends and family. As far as the breakfast options, it could be better. Was very inconsistent, but staff was able to accommodate eventually.
