Perfectly located. Within walking distance to arena and the piers. Nice staff, rooms are nice. Would have been nice if the restaurant was open for more than breakfast buffet, but we were within walking distance to a number of great restaurants.

The only thing that was inconvenient is their key cards. They are used to get in and out of the parking garages and if your phone or keys touch them AT ALL your key card doesn’t work and there’s no one in the guard box. So it was definitely frustrating.
