No room service, restaurant or roof top bar. Closed and was not made aware. Heating in the rooms not working and staff left window open while we were out for the day. Road construction outside so very noisy. Great location but it worth cost - not even have tea/coffee facilities in the room.

We had a great weekend stay here. Front desk was friendly and helpful. I really appreciated the detailed sheet of instructions for the parking garage. The room was clean and modern, perhaps a bit small, but perfectly comfortable. Breakfast was adequate with both hot and cold options. Within walking distance, there is an abundance of well reviewed restaurants. We walked to The Olde Bar for their happy hour specials, and later in the evening to a wonderful Korean restaurant a block from the hotel. I’d definitely stay here again.
