The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Our stay was just one night, but everyone we dealt with from check-in, valet, and the bar at Scarpetta were great.

Luxurious and Convenient Stay
We only stayed one night but it was a really luxurious room and very spacious. We had a great night stay before my husband ran the marathon and was a great location for him to get to the start and mile 7 ran right by the hotel.

IT CAN'T BE A 5* HOTEL!
Old, "worn-out" hotel, with noisy air conditioning in the room. Considering the overall condition - definitely too expensive! In addition, they do not recognize your VIP status.
