Rooms and hallways are outdated. There was hair stuck to the ceiling, the air vent in the shower had lint and mold inside it. Found a contact on the floor in bathroom that wasn’t mine. Popcorn ceilings. Pillows are flat, blankets are thin. Convenient location, free popcorn and waters daily.

I really like this hotel, everything is walking distance, my only complaint is for the price of this hotel the rooms must be cleaner, the bathroom had mold on the walls and the edges of the bathtub and there was dust everywhere in the room, apparently it had not been used for a long time.

We had a fantastic stay! They let us check in several hours early. The front desk staff was extremely helpful. Check in was a breeze. We did have an issue where our TV was not working properly. We called the front desk staff and within 30-45minutes they had already replaced the TV with a brand new one. The restaurant/bar in the lobby was great

Good in general
Overall a great place, expensive but the location is worth it. The only bad thing was the bad service from a valet parking person, I wanted to report it to the manager but apparently they did nothing about it. In fact, the employee told me "Go ahead and report me".

Like the location. But everything else was not good. Switched room twice. Night shift manager had a long face when we requested to change room due to construction noise in the middle of night. The room we got has sewer smell in bathroom. We had two days left so just deal with it ourselves. We will never book this hotel again. So many other better choices around downtown.
