I had the best stay at this hotel. The valet service was a pleasant surprise and made parking hassle-free. The location couldn't have been better - right in the heart of this city and directly across from the State Capital. It was so convenient to walk to all the attractions and not worry about parking or transportation. The cleanliness of the room was impressive, and it was incredibly spacious. The modern bathroom was sparkling clean, and the provided shower products were a nice touch. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, from the valet to the front desk. They went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable, offering great suggestions and even upgrading my room without me asking.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The staff, from check-in to valet to housekeeping, were extremely friendly and attentive. The room, which felt more like a small apartment, was spotlessly clean and well-lit. The bed and pillows were unbelievably comfortable, even for someone like me with a bad neck. The hotel's location, directly across the street from the Capitol, was perfect for exploring the city's financial district and other attractions.
