“This downtown hotel makes a strong case for its location, particularly for events in the core. Staff consistently impress with their attentiveness, and the rooms, while occasionally tight in the bathroom, are generally comfortable and quiet. Parking options are available, though an additional cost is a frequent consideration here.”
