Meh. It’s unique and in a great location. The staff wasn’t overly friendly and we needed service in our room as soon as we got there. We had to remind them a second time after no one showed.

The parking is terrible. They charged for parking but we had to park on the street most of the time. The parking garage is very small and not made for any type of larger car. The rooms were not clean. There were several pieces of small candy on the floor from previous guests. The staff was not friendly and did not seem to care about any concerns from guests. The restaurant and bar were good with great service. The hotel needs some updating also. Will not stay there again.
