I really enjoyed my stay. The area was perfect for date night. The hotel was super nice, the breakfast bar was hella good and staff were nice. The valet got a little crazy but I’d still give it a 5 star

The location if you are attending an event at the Benchmark Arena is perfect. The staff was pleasant, accommodating and helpful. The rooms were clean and spacious as always at Embassy Suites. It is also nice have a restaurant/bar on the premises that stays open late so you can grab a drink and food after the event and not have to fight the crowds at other local establishments.
