I've stayed at plenty of hotels and this is first bad review I have ever written. The important thing to understand about this property is that they operate an extremely loud nightclub on the 15th floor which is open to the partying crowd who you will be sharing the elevator with on the way to your room. My room was three floors away and I could still feel the bed vibrating from the loud music. When I asked (very politely) to change my room, the front desk clerk responded, "it might have been helpful if you had told us this morning" (I couldn't because I had an all day business meeting). Except for the manager, who was quite helpful, most of the staff were unfriendly and seemed bothered if you asked a perfectly normal question. It was such a lousy experience that I have trouble believing that the good reviews are legitimate.

The front desk staff were friendly, and check-in was easy. However, our room had AC issues during days when the temperature was over 90°F, which made the stay very uncomfortable. Unfortunately, the hotel refused to offer a refund. The pool hours are also quite limited (10 AM to 4 PM), which isn’t practical for most travelers. The bed was uncomfortable, and on the weekends, noise from outside woke me up multiple times during the night. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel.

I stayed three nights for a solo vacation - my room was beautiful, spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable and I had a great view of the city. All of the staff were super friendly and housekeeping came daily. My only recommendation is to stay here on weeknights only (unless your goal is to party all night!) Over the weekend the attached club is extremely rowdy, and the bass rattled the walls and bed (I was on the 12th floor, the club is on the 14th or 15th floor). The front desk staff did warn me as I checked in, so I was prepared with earplugs and still slept okay.

Hotel Bar Mr Purple is actually a club. Plays loud music until 2am Friday and 4am Saturday. Our room was a couple floors above so no chance of sleep til 2am/4am. So loud you struggle even to hear the TV just had to sit it out. Then have to sleep late and start day late. Would have been nice to know as I would not have picked this hotel.
