    Nice modern hotel, convenient for the office. Not much around for tourists. Nothing in walking distance, bars, restaurants etc.
  • Katie

    The hotel was perfectly fine, but the value of $400 per night was seriously lacking. It met my needs but for that price I expected A LOT more.

    Everyone was super professional, kind, and considerate. The grounds were immaculate and the rooms were clean and comfortable.
