We won’t be back.
Pros:

Great location for Old Town restaurants and accessing USD. The breakfast was fantastic, bacon was ON POINT and the staff in the dining area are incredibly kind.

Cons:

Cleanliness of our first room was garbage. Ants in our bed and dirty sheets on the second bed. We were given a new room and the mini fridge was broken (claimed it was fixed but it never was), shower pressure was low and then stopped working all together at one point before kicking back on-I expected more for paying $1200+ for 3 nights.

Was great for a weekend getaway comfortable and central but a little expensive
Pros:

Staff was wonderful and easy to park and restaurant was delicious and convenient with room service !

Cons:

The water shut off while I was showering but only once! Do not think it is a consistent issue

Our stay was a good experience just not what I was expecting.
Pros:

Breakfast was good, could have had a few more options, instead of just eggs though. Maybe French toast or pancakes as well.

Cons:

The room had a horrible view of the rooftop, and it was not as big as I was expecting for a hotel like this.

Pros:

pierwszy raz spotkałem się z napiwkami podczas śniadań doliczanych do ceny hotelu. Nie dość, że samemu bierzesz śniadania i napoje to jeszcze trzeba dać za to napiwek. Tragedia. Oczywiście śniadania codziennie takie same więc w połowie pobytu poszedłem na śniadanie do restauracji poza hotelem.
