This place is great...!

Pros: Loved the modern clean design. I would recommend the breakfast... its classy and a great complement to the hotel.
The staff was delightful and the location was in a great high-end part of town away from all the tourist traffic and buses. The front desk staff were very helpful and explained the how to move about the town with suggestions that fit us and our tastes. We we're thrilled with the entire experience.
