8.6/10 Excellent! (1,008 reviews)
The room was very pleasant - I would have preferred a higher floor but bed was comfortable and room was clean. Check in was easy - I was at hotel only to sleep so I didn't utilize restaurant or bar area but they looked really nice.

Breakfast is served until 10 a.m., and by 8:30 there's nothing to eat. Everything is empty. People have to fight over food. Change this, and your hotel stay will be fantastic.

Most of the outdoor animals were hiding inside where it is warm. $25 for parking was steep.

Get off the red line at Woodly Park. Walk 10 minutes and you're there. Go on a week day, in the fall. No crowds.
4/5 - Good
