The food at the hotel was terrible. Patrick, the bartender was very attentive and truly care about the customers. Check in was ok. We were overcharged for services. I asked Mera to email us a receipt, I'm still waiting for it. She really does not care about following up on issues. The room was nice. We were able to walk everywhere.

Check in lady was not friendly or welcoming. Looks like the pictures on the website were old as the actual room was a little more worn. Dusty, odd smell. Valet turned up the heat and adjusted the seats and left it that way. Too much money for what you get. Will not return.

Who wants to stay at a hotel under construction? Not me. Lines to get on the elevator to the relocated “lobby”. Having to walk down stairs. Stuffy staff. I won’t be going back. If they had indicated they were unconstruction, I would not have stayed there.

Lobby was under construction which was not noted on the website but on an email I received the night before I was traveling there. I would have never spent that kind of money for two nights had I known this. Meeting friends and family and had to meet them in the rain outside because no where to go. Elevators were a nightmare. I'm upset I spent so much money for this hotel. Next time I will do research on my own and book on my own directly.

I stayed in one of the suites with a pull out sofa bed. They brought sheets and blankets to make up the bed. The blankets were soooo scratchy and old, just completely gross - I should've insisted on a comforter but it was late. I'm still dealing with a rash on my hands and arms that I picked up from the blankets three weeks later. Furious! AVOID THIS HOTEL! Also, its impossible to manage the temperature in the suites with the doors to the master closed so someone was always too hot or too cold. The valet was a disaster at night with the entire entry area full of parked cars so we had to go to a parking lot a few blocks away. Lastly, the hotel is under major renovation which was not advertised when I booked it so the make shift front desk is in a conference room.

Stay away while this property is under a “facelift.” It’s real construction where there hotel has NO LOBBY or reception. The “check in” is a conference room. They are still charging their 5 star rate and apologizing for the construction with a twenty dollar drink voucher. No hot water in my sink and never taken care of. I stayed there to have a “beautiful hotel” experience and was terribly disappointed.
