For $500 plus our room was dirty, the carpet when you get off the elevator smelled and had old old stains. The furniture was dated. The worker at Starbucks seem like she didn’t want to work any day, not friendly at all. I will never stay at this hotel again.

The staff were nice and friendly however the rooms are outdated and old. I didn’t get the room that I booked online. The parking is valet only and is across the street where you don’t have access to your vehicle. I would not stay here again!

Nice but don't bet on breakfast

Everything was great, very nice accommodations. Except, the "Bistro Breakfast" was not well explained or signed. I went to the lobby in the morning to see about 10 muffins sitting on a sad little tray and an empty coffee pot. Went back to my room too tell my hubby. When he went to the lobby, he saw the same arrangement, people sitting at tables waiting for food, no signage apparent. One employee was taking an order over the counter, then put out a placard starting which menu items could be ordered at no cost to hotel guests. I assume this arrangement works better for the hotel and wastes less time and money than a typical continental breakfast, but guests need to be informed about this procedure and employees should be present to meet the breakfast needs of the guests
