"We stayed here before and really the downtown location. Stay and staff were great. Breakfast pretty good for complementary. Small issue of difficulty finding a functional fridge on 3 tries, but management was kind enough to pick up the tab for valet parking as compensation for lost food, so I give them credit for that. I would stay at Hyatt, and this property, again."
