Poor customer services, hallways were dirty. one elevator working. slow front desk reactions. One wash cloth in the restroom when there's two people. Male employee at front desk had a horrible attitude, perhaps he was having a bad day.

We arrived at 2:00 and were told check-in was at 3:00 and we would have to wait until then. We came back at 2:50 and there were 20 people in line waiting to check in. We talked to other guests who said they arrived at 2:30 and were able to check in then.

Staff was friendly and the place was clean, but the beds were small and very uncomfortable. The pillows were hard. The tub was dangerously bowl shaped with no way to stand flat. The Internet was so slow, it was almost unusable.

Staff were friendly, as far as the room… meh! The tub/shower was not inviting at all, rust on bottom of tub and grout mold. The room was full of pet dander which means they don’t sanitize after pet visits. The bed was not comfortable at ALL! we had a premium room at that…. Thankfully it was just an overnight stay

Room was clean and comfortable until the heater went out one night. But it was fixed the next day. Apparently, you have to ask for room service although there were no signs about this nor were we told this upon check in. But requests were met in a timely manner once we realized we had to ask. Although luckily, we had written down our requests because when we went to the desk, there was no one there who spoke English. The location was convenient for our event at the convention center and the staff was friendly.

The room only had one working light (out of 4-5 in the room). The bathroom lights worked though. There was also a plastic bottle under the chair left over from someone else’s trash.

Great location downtown. Usually still reasonably affordable during events. Parking across the street. Building seems kinda dated but I've stayed multiple times and never found it to be unacceptable. Decent bang for your buck when downtown and everywhere else is outrageously priced during high volume events.
