Disappointing stay.

Booked what was called a corner suite. The room is actually on the side of the hotel. I was also placed on the ground floor which I was looking at a construction site out the side window. I went back to the front desk and asked for a different room but was told nothing available. Also asked to be moved for the second night but was never given a response by front desk. This was our third stay and will be back. Just won’t book the “corner suite” again.

High quality decor and furnishings with a spectacular view. Nice kitchen setup but would be nice if there were starter packs for things like coffee and tea (they are available in the lobby).

Overall it’s definitely not worthy of the price we paid for the room. There’s also no pool and soooo many spiders around the sitting areas outside
