Nice hotel

Hotel was great! The thing that got me was they don't have any free self-parking. They only have valet parking and it's $55 a night. I complained and the Manager waived it, but I don't think it's right to not put that info on the description of the hotel.

I’m so disappointed as I was expecting so much better. The girls that checked me in had no idea how far the airport was from the hotel and said I can google it as well as what time to leave if there’s traffic. My card had a swiping issue and the other girl said she didn’t know how to manually enter it. When i went to my room floor there was a cart in the hall with old food and dirty items for hours. In the room there was stains on the rug and bed sheets. On one bed the sheets had holes and a burn mark that caused the sheet to have a sharp burnt edge. I took photos of it all. I’m traveling for work and there was an iron but no ironing board or robe in the closet. Very very disappointing especially for the price.

LOTS to be desired...

I REALLY wish I had a better experience. This was my chance, as a mom if 3, to get away for one night. The hotel itself is lovely. However, it was VERY understaffed. At check-in, no one behind the desk. Eventually, the valet found someone to check me in. Not the best first impression. At the poil, no one at the towel Check-out station or the bar. The last impression was me heading down 7 flights of stairs because the intercom said the building was on fire.

Great Hotel, not great desk staff.

Room was great, very clean and the bed comfortable as well. Unfortunately during my stay one of the gentleman at the front desk was very rude and made my stay more difficult than necessary. Was delayed Friday evening due to weather and didn’t arrive until Saturday morning. Was told that since I was early to check-in that my room was not ready yet. Despite technically being a day late to my booking. I reiterated that my booking was actually for the previous day and was still told the same thing. So either he was too lazy to look up an open room from the previous night or the hotel double booked my room. I have a whole list of other interactions between us and not enough characters to explain it all out. Long story short, this gentleman was extremely unhelpful during the whole process and is the reason my rating is not a full 5 stars.
