The Docent Collection-Boyd Block was a wonderful stay! VERY clean and luxurious, we had everything we needed and more. The staff was very professional and helpful. Check in was the most efficient ever. I absolutely loved everything about Boyd Block, we were in walking distance to so many places. This was a 10/10 stay!
