"What a hidden gem! The staff was incredibly friendly, and the check in process was super quick. They were even able to get us into our room an hour early and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. I was a little worried about the parking situation, but we had no problem getting a spot in the garage. The room itself was gorgeous. We stayed in one of the newly renovated rooms upstairs, and it was extremely clean with a comfy bed and nice, cold AC. The location was perfect too, just a couple blocks from all the action while still being a great place to come back to and relax. Would 100% stay here again. Between the friendly staff, great location, clean and comfortable room, and easy parking, we had an awesome experience!"
