What a great hotel! Nice and clean, super friendly staff, and comfortable rooms, all located in a very central location. There were offers of free martinis and coffee as well. Breakfast was available, and they have a restaurant attached, which seemed to be popular. We stayed in a standard king, and they accommodated an early check in. We completed check in and check out online, which was very convenient. Please note, there were certain aspects of the room design that was strange to us. The bathroom door slides and doubles as the closet door, which meant there was a humorous moment where my husband’s luggage prevented me from leaving the bathroom. Easily fixed by moving it. The other, the door for the shower opens in towards the shower. For somebody in a much larger body like myself, that meant going into the corner of the shower and having the door bump my belly to close it. This won’t be an issue except for a very small percentage of people. The hotel responded elsewhere that there are other rooms with different layouts, so just ask. I didn’t realize until I went to shower the next day.

We spent a week at The Woodlark in July, and had a great experience! The staff are so welcoming, and helpful and they even upgraded our room. The rooms are beautiful, and stocked with waters, and nice shampoos/lotions, etc although the rooms are pretty small. The hotel is quiet, but there was an event going on Friday night, which was very loud and even on the top floor kept us up until after midnight. The coffee shop downstairs is delicious! We didn't try the restaurant as it didn't have great vegan options. Hotel is in a good location, with a Target walking distance, and a short walk to public transportation! Overall we were very pleased with our stay, and would definitely recommend to a friend and would stay again 😊
