Spacious suites
Chose hotel #1for the offering of suites w/separate room w/sofa bed (not comfortable but functional. Close to PNC, but w/traffic will take 30 minutes.

I had an excellent visit! Such a nice and clean hotel with a beautiful view of the pool and city. The only qualm that our family had was that the pool could be kept open a bit longer than 8pm. Besides this, the gym was the best part; very clean with nice equipment and air conditioning!

Stay was very pleasant. Nice room. Clean bathroom. I would have given it 5 stars but the carpets in the corridors were very dirty. A couple of maintenance items to take care of. But overall, nice.

The hotel is very dated. We had stains on our carpet. The furniture should be upgraded. A fee for parking. My first and last time.
