The originally room they checked us into was terrible and nowhere near as nice as the photos in the listing. It also had water leaking from the ceiling from the room above. It had paint peeling on walls and ceilings throughout. A hole in the door. We reported this to the front desk and they moved us to a different room. They claimed they were “upgrading” us, but when we went to the new room it ended up being the exact same room that we were in previously, just on a different floor. In this new room, the carpet was stained and smelled terrible. The beds had stained bedding on them. The pullout couch bed didn’t work & wouldn’t come out so one of us had to sleep on the couch for 4 nights. The bathroom light would flicker on and off throughout the night and would not turn off so that kept one of the kids up at night since it was so bright. The windows are terribly thin and uninsulated so we got no sleep at all because of the loud noise of wind, cap cars, traffic all night, ambulances/firetruck sirens, people yelling up and down the busy streets, etc. The included breakfast was terrible. The eggs were watered down and mushy everyday, the pancakes were dry and hard/crispy, the sausage was cold everyday, it had a very small selection so we ended up having to buy breakfast elsewhere each morning which was expensive & we did not budget for that since we assumed we would be eating breakfast at the hotel each day, that’s actually one reason we booked this hotel. Really bad experience.

The hotel was in a wonderful location to everything. A ton of food and shopping near by. The staff, breakfast and complimentary happy was fantastic. The down side was that the TV in our room never worked, part of the room were literally falling apart, we could hear the room next to us through the bathroom vent. Not muffled, clear as day. It kept our kids up all night, as they were very loud. I felt like that was a severe lack of privacy

The valet and check in process went smooth. The room smelled and appeared nice upon entering however soon after we noticed how dusty it was, and I mean DUSTY. You could see where the carpet had been vacuumed and the spots that were missed had a THICK layer of dust. Very gross but we were just staying a night and would be out of the room most of the time. The ironing board was literally in pieces in the closet, I called the desk to request another and was told someone would bring another up right away but 45 minutes later it never came, we had an event and I couldn't wait so I had to prop the board up on chairs to iron. Returning to the room that evening I noticed no television remote so I called the desk to request one, they did bring the remote the NEXT MORNING 14 minutes before check out! Slight inconveniences but inconveniences nonetheless. Housekeeping must do better. The complimentary breakfast was fantastic, buffet style and other options made to order.
