Stayed for 5 nights and had a great time. Hotel was clean and in a great location in walking distance to The Farmers Market and The Grove. Valet were super helpful and attentive throughout our stay. Coffee and tea available in the mornings which was a nice touch. Also had evening drinks and food in the hotel bar one night which was lovely with the tree lights and fire. Would highly recommend and would certainly stay here again
