10/10 Exceptional

Great location, close to Amtrak.

We had a nice night, it was a little difficult to figure how to get in the building, but once we did, it was easy. We walked to a place a block away for a delicious breakfast and then walked 2 blocks to the train station to head home.

Perfect city View and Friendly Service

This hotel was so amazing! The building security went above and beyond and the front desk staff for both overnight and morning were friendly and very knowledgeable. Such amazing service and such a beautiful hotel. The view from the room was perfect of the city line!

10/10 Exceptional

The check-in desk was accommodating, letting us check-in early and holding onto our bags after we checked out. It was clean and the window view were great.
Mayleen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great for a quick stay.

Once inside, it was great. The initial part of parking and getting inside was a little confusing. I arrived in the PM and signs were not great on where to go. The hotel is on the 40th floor so you just don’t walk into a hotel lobby. But the staff and accommodations were perfect for a one night stay. Roomier than what I was expecting. The breakfast was a little lack luster.
