I had a great stay at Inn At Union Square, enjoying the comfortable rooms and beautiful decor. The wine hour each evening was a lovely touch, and the breakfast spread was just what I needed to start my day. However, I did find the extra charge for coffee a bit unwarranted, and I missed having a bathtub in the room. Overall, it's a fantastic location and I would definitely recommend it!
