Unique hotel. Rooms are small and valet is pricey. The walls are very thin and we heard loud music from a neighboring restaurant past midnight. It was a Wednesday night. Stuff was friendly.

Super cute rooms - super convenient. Wish I had known at 10:25 am when I went to the coffee shop in lobby to get breakfast that they stop at 10:20 km game days, which is a very odd time Also just got a $55 valet charge for one night that I plan to call about , esp since my car was left right outside in a spot 25 feet away all night

Stayed for college move in. You can't beat the location. But the road nouse was terrible. Im a Hilton Honors members and honstly if i wasnt so tired from moving in i would changed hotels. You pay premium for the location but depending on whete your room is the noise will impact your nights sleep.

Loved the reception from Kenzie. Grouped out three rooms together without asking and loved being offered unlimited water as it was a brutally hot day. The parking assistant (Ben) was so pleasant and personable and we enjoyed talking to him. The barista in the am was engaging as well:) Staff and comfort of the bed and sitting area made our visit amazing:)
