Hotel met our needs for location, room and breakfast. Would stay again.
Pros:

Perfect location for walking to conference center. Valet parking in/out option was convenient. Great breakfast options. Staff were friendly. Rooms were clean.

Cons:

Only two operating elevators was inconvenient and breakfast availability at 7am instead of 6:30am on Monday, because it was a holiday. So, we were unable to have our breakfast before checkout. A bit expensive room rate. Sofa bed was not comfortable; just felt springs.
