Arcadian Hotel

Arcadian Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel staff was very accommodating and friendly, I checked in late at night and the gentleman at the welcome desk quickly checked me in and provided me with instructions as to where the parking garage was. He ran through all the amenities and anything I may need to know about the property. If you are a light sleeper, or are affected by light, this is the hotel for you - my room did not have a window to the outside, only the interior hallway, so it was completely blackout, which helped me get great sleep"
