I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and very clean, which made for a comfortable experience. The location was also a major highlight, being right in the heart of downtown and close to lots of attractions. However, I found the dining options somewhat lacking, particularly at breakfast, which could use a bit more variety. Overall, it was a good value for what I paid, despite a few minor issues.
