I recently enjoyed my stay at the Kimpton Banneker Hotel, which features spacious rooms and a unique decor that caught my eye. The friendly staff made me feel welcome, and the location was perfect for exploring nearby attractions. However, I did experience some issues with the Wi-Fi during my stay, which was a bit frustrating. Overall, it was a great experience, but there's room for improvement in a few areas.
