After requesting a room with no adjoining door, we were assigned a room with an adjoining door in this weird corner on the 14th floor with another room attached really close with a shared entrance. As soon as we walked in we knew there was probably going to be trouble as the room already smelled like marijuana, it was dingy, the shower tiles were brown, tape hanging on the wall from a previous party. After getting back from our event, we hadn’t been in the room for more than 20 minutes when the very very strong smell of marijuana came wafting through the adjoining door, it felt like we were in the same room with the neighbors obviously smoking. We tried to call down to the front desk but kept getting a busy signal so we had to walk down and request a new room because there was no way we were gonna be able to spend the night in a room full of marijuana smoke. The front desk gave us a new room, but also asked before they gave us a new room if we just wanted security to come up and just take care of the neighbors. As if that was my problem to deal with? The next room was one level up, miraculously, no adjoining door, much nicer than the one we had been given on the 14th floor, but the shower tire tiles were still brown and room was dingy, paper thin walls, you can hear an entire conversation next door. SMH Not worth the time, aggravation and definitely the price we paid to stay. Next time I’d choose just to stay home.

The room was clean and the staff was excellent.For my taste, the lighting was poor and the shower partition was not wide enough, allowing water to splatter onto the bathroom floor.

The worst stay ever! The cleanning staff never showed up, we had to change rooms as the room service wouldnt even pick up trays from the night before. They even charge a luxury property fee that is ridiculous as they cant even change towels or pick up food trays.

Although I truly appreciate an updated hotel room. The cost/fees for this hotel is overly priced. I stayed in a single bed room with no way to warm up food nor a table to sit at to eat take out food. My last morning shower was lukewarm & I checked out 2hrs early. The hotels website needs to be updated as it shares the hotel has airport shuttle and Italian restaurant. I contacted the front desk who shared the shuffle only travel up to 2mile radius & the restaurant has breakfast, another has take to go. I asked if the front desk could transfer me to the restaurant for more information & they were unable to do so then advice I walk in. Wow

The first room smelled of cigarette smoke even though this is a no smoking hotel. I was moved to a second room that was very dusty. There was also the smell of marijuana in the elevator. Valet parking is $67.00! It is walkable and there a great restaurant around the corner called Guard and Grace. The food and service was top notch!
