My stay at the hotel was a mix of great experiences and some disappointments. The made-to-order omelettes and nice breakfast selections were a highlight, but the delay in room availability was a downside. The view of the river and downtown was gorgeous, although the room quality didn't meet the usual Embassy Suites standards.

From valets to front desk and dining staff, everyone was apologetic, helpful, and friendly. The omelette chef added a fun touch to the complimentary breakfast experience.

The hotel's location was trendy and fun, within walking distance to many local restaurants. However, the presence of trash in the area was a downside.

The breakfast selection, including the omelet station, was good with a variety of hot and cold options. The bright atrium made up for the darkness in the rooms, but the timing could have been extended during the week.

Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience. The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, perfect for my family with the bedroom separated from the family room. The service was outstanding, from the valets to the front desk, making our stay hassle-free. The location is terrific, in the East Village neighborhood right on the river with easy access to downtown attractions. The dining options were good with a variety of choices, and the facilities were well-maintained.
