    Our stay was amazing, Vinnie was extremely helpful. He checked us in and gave us details about the city. He always made sure our stay was going well and was an amazing host overall. This hotel is in the middle of the city, great location and the Pub/Bar downstairs has a great selection. The staff in general was very friendly and welcoming. Will be staying here again once everything opens back up again…
