Annual stay

We stay here every year for the Alexandria Kennel Club AKC dog show. Being connected to the River front Center means we are only steps from the show and where our dogs stay overnight.

Rude breakfast buffet worker

The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. Our tv in our room did not work, and the bathroom had discolored Sheetrock patches. We went downstairs for breakfast, and that was our biggest disappointment. The one guy working at the breakfast buffet was rude, and of no help at all. He was sure to constantly remind everyone that he was by himself and had no help. I could understand, except that it was not busy. The customers were trying to help each other because the employee would not.

We complained 3 times because two of the table lamps did not work. They had the tv set so you could not turn the Sound up. You had to sit within 3-4 feet to hear it. The bed was hard as a child OKC. I heard that same complaint from numerous people.
