Very beautiful hotel with friendly staff. Loved the espresso machine just outside our hotel room. Walkable to everything downtown. The restaurant is top notch (with exception of our inattentive aloof bartender), but the the food made up for it. Will definitely stay here next time we’re in town.

I would like to have given five-star ratings, but everything was colored by the hot-water situation. You need to fix that problem! Also, please think about improving the valet service.

Love the decorations and the ambiance for Christmas. The valet service was excellent. Unfortunately, the coffee and tea machine was broken on our floor which was an inconvenience for us because we like coffee a lot.

The TV in the room did not work and the check-in process was beyond horrendous and the worker at the front desk had no idea how to get me checked in and took her about 20 minutes to get me checked in. Also, the staff and the restaurant is pretty rude and I sat at the bar for almost 20 minutes just waiting to get a menu or even acknowledged.
