Dear Mang87, Thanks so much for the feedback, we truly appreciate your weighing in on the experience you had in our hotel. We're very happy that you enjoyed our great service; we are extremely proud of that. Also grateful for the feedback about the sense of value. We do have rates that fluctuate with demand, no different than other hotels or airlines, but work hard to deliver a sense of value. That comes in the way of our complimentary Wine Hour held daily (the donation is for a local charity), free AM Coffee Service featuring Caffe Vita a superb coffee maker from Seattle, complimentary snacks, newspapers, use of our PUBLIC bicycles and many other items like a bottle of Champagne on your birthday! We know that even when all of the local hotel's prices rise you can always count on us for a great value and a great stay. Thanks again and we hope to see you soon.
