On our arrival I was not impressed with the valet service. There was a young man who was not helpful. However, the next day we were able to have someone escort us to our car for something we forgot and he was wonderful. The property was satisfactory other than that. I loved the location within walking distance to Bayfront Park, Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, restaurants and shops downtown. We were also disappointed that bikes were advertised, but not available.

The only thing I did not like about the hotel was that my room came with no drawers for clothes. It seemed a little weird to me.
