Nice hotel close to hospital
Pros:

Clean and quiet room. Liked that soap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand cream were all in dispensers and didn't have to deal with small, individual portions. Bed was comfortable. Front desk staff was helpful & friendly.

Cons:

Shower floor was slippery. I slipped a little but didn't fall. It could be a hazard for people with unsure footing. Unusual system with the lighting. Had to use a card to turn on the lights otherwise you're fumbling around in the dark...strange.

Comfortable stay in a very attractive, upbeat location!
Pros:

The location is awesome!
The hotel lobby and seating area is really nice.

Cons:

The shower wasn’t awful but I didn’t love the open concept where water got everywhere— the bath mat would just get soaked when we would use the shower.
