Everything about this hotel is excellent. The staff are very helpful with everything. It is right across from the Riverwalk and there are so many restaurants in the area. The breakfast bar food is excellent.
United States of AmericaThe location was great and the river view was amazing. The room was big and so was the window which was awesome. I worked with Jonathan at the front desk before our stay who helped me upgrade the room and he was wonderful! I would recommend having a drink or some food at the rooftop bar but be sure to make a reservation first.
United States of AmericaThe staff was very helpful with getting us setup with various types of transportation, both around town and to/from the airport.
United States of AmericaPerfect location to everything! Rooms were nice and had a good view. Staff were nice, friendly and helpful! I love that the pool had to be reserved and limited the number of people to help social distance. Would definitely recommend this hotel! Breakfast and coffee within the building was a bonus.
United States of AmericaThe location was amazing ! Room smelled a little musty when you first walked in. They could offer a free breakfast with as much you pay. Other than that I love the decor and easy check in abs check out!!
United States of AmericaGreat location! Raised rooftop bar was the highlight of the trip.
United States of AmericaLocation was perfect, hotel was super spotless and staff was more than helpful!
United States of AmericaStaff was helpful and knowledgeable, sites, food and bars to go to
United States of AmericaThe place and the staff, Levi is so helpful.. he asked what I dont like for my stay, I told him about the charges on my wifi connection. He said that is the membership on Marriott hotel. He asked me if I want to be a member but I politely turn it down for the reason that I don't mostly stay in Marriott. Inspite of that he still give me a free internet and took it out from my bill. I was so happy for what he did. Over all our stay was nice and relaxing. So sad because of Covid19 were not able to enjoy more because of the restrictions. Definitely will be coming back and refer to my friends.
