I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable, with a nice sofa lounging area, a desk, and a super comfy bed. It would have been even better if parking was included in the high price. The service was a bit scattered at times but overall very friendly and welcoming. The location turned out to be quite convenient for exploring the area, especially with access to bars and restaurants nearby. The dining experience was decent, offering a nice variety, but could have been better with more options throughout the day.

My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were nice with tall ceilings and new amenities, but there was a lingering scent of cigarette smoke masked with air freshener. The service, especially near the driver's seat of my car, was terrific, although dry cleaning and housekeeping could be improved. The location, despite poor wireless internet service, offered a nice view of the city and easy access to restaurants. The dining experience was pleasant with a great selection of hot and fresh food. However, free parking a block away was a plus, as I did not opt for the valet service. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.

The location had a bunch of restaurants close by, offered a nice view of the city, and provided easy access to downtown entertainment. Tony and Teresa went above and beyond, showing true Midwest hospitality.

The location was amazing, close to downtown activities and dining options. The dining experience offered a great selection of hot and fresh meals but fell short compared to similar hotels.
