This is a hidden gem - the property is on the 40th floor with great view. This is perfect for business or couples who want a quiet and low key environment.

Suite is more spacious than shown in photos. Can’t say enough about the views. Super quiet and safe. Cool to get access to the athletic club. Did I mention the view? As others have mentioned, this is a hidden gem.

From the time we arrived through checking out, both the building security staff and the hotel staff were amazing in every way! Always positive, polite, attentive, welcoming, and courteous. The building, hotel, and the room itself were immaculate. The amenities were wonderful. The view was breathtaking both day and night!!! This property and all of the staff are an absolute hidden gem!

Great stay! Great views, really! The train makes a lot of noise and we can hear from the room, but that’s not the hotel fault, but, in the future I’ll prefer some option without this disturbing recurring from every 15min 24/7 noise

If I could give this hotel 3 1/2 stars I would. It is kind of difficult to find the hotel, as it is in a building full of other offices. The actual hotel is only the top 2 floors of the hotel. The room we stayed in had a stunning city view that really made me appreciate the stay. The bathroom seemed outdated, especially the tub. Would I stay here again? Possibly but it would not be my first choice. Close to union station!
