We didn't stay here this visit...but will next time! We had considered it when planning our current trip so we stopped in to check it out. Shaunda was so nice and offered to show us around. She spent a lot of time with us and took us up to a beautiful room, showed us the lobby area, and took us up to the rooftop terrace - which was spectacular. We will definitely stay here in the future! Again, thanks very much to Shaunda for being an awesome guide and representative for the hotel.

I had a really great experience here. They were very accommodating and gave us a junior spa suite that had great views, comfortable beds, and a jacuzzi tub. The jacuzzi tub would not drain after we used it the first time, and they were able to have it fixed in less than 2 hours!! I also liked that they provided robes, toiletries, and waters. The lighting in the room was adjustable which I love since I hate bright lights! The beds are comfortable and the blackout curtains make it easy to sleep well. Gabby at the front desk was so sweet and helpful. The doormen are great as well- shout out to Antwonne! The hotel is a good location surrounded by restaurants and things to do. I would suggest checking out the surrounding restaurants over the restaurant at the hotel.

Nice, clean room that was very quiet at night, for a rather noisy area. The location is amazing. However the pool is closed. It looks small whenever it will be approved by the city again. The weight room is large, though the dumbbells are lacking at higher weights. Roof deck is a cool, albeit it starts to feel small if 6+ out. Would be really cool to have a larger space with a bar. Missed the pool. Would have liked a sauna at least. Parking is insanely expensive, but easy to walk to from the El or bus.
