"We were on a cross-country road trip and this place was like finding an oasis in a desert of mediocre chain hotels. Really well thought-out and well decorated. If you've ever been to a Kimpton, I would say it's quite similar in its level of luxury and design styling. The restaurant was expensive, but worth it. The room even had a mini bar, which was a god-send after a long day on the road."
