I stayed for several nights in a premium room red level, and I must say, I were impressed. I found the location very central to many attractions, made exploring super easy. The staff were really friendly and always willing to assist with any requests I had. Breakfast offers nice selections!

The bar lacked a little atmosphere, and I felt the lighting was too bright for a relaxed evening vibe.

The hotel provided valet parking. This was useful considering the difficulty of parking. Breakfast included both a la carte options and a buffet. A la carte selections offered local specialties.

I requested a room on a higher floor. I was told the hotel was 'sold out'. I could see rooms still available online. Our family room suite was on the first floor.

The breakfast was quite good.

The gym lacked basic equipment. There were no free weights available, only machines were provided. I also found the housekeeping inconsistent. One day the room service was late, another day items weren't replenished properly, really annoying.
