Our stay was great. The rooms are extremely clean, and the hotel looks nice all around. The only downside is the price. It is a little bit pricey, but that might be because of its location.

I liked having several restaurants within walking distance. Also we could walk to the convention center. We weren’t there to shop so I don’t know what that would be like. The beds were comfortable and the staff was super nice and helpful. One thing I would have preferred a bathroom door that locked and blocked light.

We were in the second floor and the noise from the street kept us up until 3 am. Mostly loud motorcycles and cars. Completely out of the control of the hotel, but stay on the highest floor if possible. The property is very nice, upscale, and clean.

The hotel was beautiful and clean, my only problem was the restaurant. They have a breakfast buffet and they charge $17 per person. We got there this morning around 10AM and they had not refilled any of the items on the buffet. The fruit have been picked over and it looked rotten. All the pastries was really hard and picked over. If they are going to charge that much for a Buffet, then it should be refilled until 11 o’clock when they stop serving.

Friday night is absolutely horrendous

The hotel was nice however the neighborhood where the hotel is not so great. It was loud till 2:30am, I mean loud music and people. I was told that the area is allowed to stay loud like that Friday evenings. After the music is out by 2:30am, people and motorcycles etc in the area were still making noise well into 3:30am. I was up till them, there was no way to fall back asleep. If you plan to stay here for Friday night (not sure about Saturday night because I only stayed one night), just remember this

Property appeared very new and updated, everything was very clean, staff was very helpful, they had their own parking, which was convenient, The shower was very nice and well designed, security was present, which made you feel safe, room, temperature, and air conditioning was great and very quiet. Would like to see complementary coffee in the lobby, which is more convenient than going to the seventh floor or taking time to make our own in the room. Also, we really liked having parking on site, but we were not aware there was an additional upper deck that was available by going around the other end of the hotel. Lower level was tight parking for a truck/suv.

Great stay!!

I would recommend this hotel. It was a bit more $$ than others but I feel it was worth it. We arrived in the morning well before check in and our room was ready! It was so nice after having a super early morning flight to arrive to a clean room on a high floor with a great view. Shout to Adonis for a smooth check in process!! Room was large, updated and well appointed. A nice touch is they provide you with two mini bottles of water and a cozy bathrobe. Waterfall shower head has great water pressure. The entire staff were so accommodating and made some great recommendations on places to eat. Tiffany was our girl!! Took care of us and we appreciate her and all the night staff. There are a few restaurants within walking distance and a great place to grab a beer at “State of Beer”. We were in town for Galaxycon and we had hoped to get a hotel closer to the Convention Center but it is only a 16-17 minute walk and the area is very safe. The only things I would point out are: 1. Train tracks right near hotel and train went by at 3:00 am blaring the horn 2. There is a fun bar right next door with outdoor seating. It gets very loud at night. We were lucky our room faced the other side of the hotel but we did hear other guest complaining about the noise. The hotel did provide ear plugs which was nice. 3. No swimming pool. I guess I should have checked that when I made the reservation. Nowadays I just assume a hotel at this

Expensive, but far from luxury

The property is cramped. No room to leave the car while checking in. Signs out front indicate all street parking is for Uber/Lyft. It feels like the building was designed and built in a rush with lower materials and quality control. Bathroom sink had low water pressure. Bathroom door would not close. Toilet ran constantly until you get out of bed and jiggle button. Windows are thin and road noise is disturbing. Sprinkler/smoke detector strobe light is right above bed and flickers randomly all night. Parking deck is weird and has random plastic humps everywhere that you will trip on. Mattress was mediocre at best. For this price tag I would expect much better.
