"We absolutely loved everything about The Vendue: fabulous artwork, wonderful staff and concierge service, the location is supreme and safe at night, walked to 5 star restaurants, and one of the best perks is their warm homemade chocolate chip cookies and milk after a long day and dinner. They were dangerous in the best way! We had a king room with windows. We would stay there again in a heartbeat. Thanks to the wonderful staff for making our visit so memorable."
