Really good Stay with Crispy Bacon

corner suite professional staff great food crispy bacon
I stayed for three nights in a corner suite, it has been updated since my previous visit! The staff demonstrated courtesy and professionalism. Kai Tyagi, a manager, helped sort out a room upgrade request. She surprised us with an excellent solution, and the restaurant and room service offered great options. The food arrived both delicious and hot. My wife favored the crispy breakfast bacon.
The location was great though the parking was expensive!

Nice Stay at this refined Hotel

clean scent valet service attentive housekeeping restaurants
I have enjoyed three stays here between January and April. The restaurants were excellent. The valet greeted me by name when I stepped out of an Uber, that felt special. The hotel features a sophisticated, clean scent. Housekeeping folded my clothes impeccably. I also saw them scrubbing every inch of the bathroom each day.
The room service was slow at times. It took nearly 45 minutes to deliver a cup of ice cream. this did not diminish my overall satisfaction.
Location
