Decor, cleanliness, location all superb. The only negative was the horrifically slow wifi, essentially unusable even for email and Google docs. I notified the front desk the first morning but it was never addressed. Have to cross this hotel off the list for business trips.

Great location, near shops and restaurants. Convenient parking. Wonky heating/AC. Bathroom desperately needs shelf space for toiletries. Water temp far too cool. Bed too soft. But front desk staff were wonderful

Comfortable
The room was great until something happened that caused all the lights, TV and fridge to quit working! But other than that hiccup the rooms at the Graduate are comfortable and the staff is always friendly. The bar, however, always seems to close very early, which is disappointing after a concert.

The hotel is located in the ped mall area so there were lots of options dining and lots of things to do. Fun environment. The room and hotel were clean and felt safe. You had to use your room key to use the elevators. Staff was helpful and friendly. We will stay again.
