"We had a great experience at this hotel for a weekend getaway! The location was such a pleasant surprise. We were incredibly close to the mall, several of our favorite restaurants that we also have back home, and the Metro, which made getting downtown really convenient.
The property itself was beautiful, the staff was friendly and welcoming, and our room was very nice. Overall, we had a great stay and really enjoyed the hotel.
The only downside for us was the rooftop club/lounge. While having a rooftop venue at the hotel is definitely exciting, when the lounge was open, the atmosphere of the hotel changed quite a bit. The line for the lounge funneled through the hotel, and three elevators essentially became one for hotel guests since we were sharing them with everyone heading to the rooftop. At times, the normally quiet and relaxing feel of the hotel became pretty chaotic. We were staying on the 10th floor and actually chose to take the stairs to our room twice just to avoid the elevator line.
That being said, this wouldn’t stop us from staying here again. We really enjoyed our weekend and the convenience of the location. I just think a more separate or streamlined process for rooftop guests would make the experience even better for hotel guests, especially on busy nights."
