Air conditioning in room was not working upon arrival. Called front desk and reported and they said someone would come to fix it. Left to go to an event and returned at 11:30 pm. Waited for front desk clerk to get off of personal phone call. Asked clerk if it was fixed and she said it was. Went up to room at 12:30 am and it was not fixed. It was too late to change rooms so we sweated all night while sleeping.
I was charged for a suite and was given a standard room. The manager was out for the weekend and no one followed through to accommodate me. I paid extra for something I didn’t get. Also, it was my birthday. The manager offered to discount my room but still overcharged me.
Room and facilities were clean. Staff is very nice. Parking garage was easy and safe. The bed and pillows were so comfortable. The gym was well equipped.
The rooms were nice ! We stayed on the 14 floor to see the view” Breakfast was nice an on point! Only thing I didn’t like was the 28 dollars for parking per day!!! $30 to park is ridiculous “ I don’t mind paying 10/15$ but $30?
