Meh

The set up of the bathroom with the curtains OUTSIDE for privacy to the shower is beyond dumb. The beds were lumpy and broken down. The carpets were not clean, maybe vacuumed but definitely not clean. The rooms need serious attention to digital upgrades. I stayed in 2 seperate rooms on 2 different floors while I was there for the Night Ranger concert.

For paying the outlandish price we paid, one would think that we would have a nice room. Then we get there only to find out the price of rooms went down by 350.00. which of course we were not reimbursed. So then we figure on great room for big price... Wrong! They put us in very last room at end of very long hall where the conference room was on one side of us & the stairwell was on the other side. There was non stop door slamming & loudness from both sides throughout our whole stay. We were supposed to have a hot tub in bedroom & there was not. Just a big shower with a jenky curtain tht was broken & you couldn't move it. There were no info packets next to phone about surrounding businesses had no info on room service, etc our luggage holder was broken. The only nice thing we have to say about our whole stay was that our massage down in the Spa was amazing. We certainly needed it to deal with our hotel stay. Overall experience with hotel.....VERY VERY DISSAPOINTED!
