Excellent location, safe and you do see a police/security presence, lots of traffic in the area so only choice is to valet with the hotel but cost is disclosed up front so that is fine, traffic to be expected. Lots of things are walkable, like the design district (a little dicey on the way otherwise fine) Hotel itself is modern, beautiful, clean. Suite style is spacious, beautiful, comfortable. We would definitely stay again. Definitely satified and happy with stay.
