Bed was amazing! Wish I could take it home! Parking wasn't great but there was a big parking lot. Front desk man said they hold $75 for incidentals but really it held $150 did NOT appreciate that.
Water pressure was was awful, and sliding door didn’t shut it kept sliding back, while in the shower.

I loved the vibe. The train was worth the extra cost- definitely a big hit with my kids! The staff was friendly, over the top. I will be coming back! Also the iced latte was amazing. Didn't have to go to a coffee shop, major plus having delicious coffee in the lobby for only $4!

This was a great hotel for an anniversary trip! We were able to walk to all the places we wanted to go, and even found a place to get food at 1am within walking distance. It was so pretty, clean, so many attentions to detail, and the staff was amazing. Make sure to bring cash to tip because they deserve it!
