All in all it is not a very guest-friendly hotel: Check in was not that great. We asked for a room away from the elevator and we went to the room and it was literally right next to the elevator. It wouldn't have been so bad if the elevator didn't have the obnoxious voice telling you what floor you are on and you practically have to wear earplugs to not go deaf from the floor pronouncement on each and every floor (that you can hear all the way to the rooms which is why we didn't want a room by the elevator). We ended up having to wait in line again to get reassigned to another room. Another annoying thing about the rooms are that they don't automatically come with a refrigerator or microwave. I take that back, there is a fridge, but it is full of alcoholic beverages leaving no room for any of your perishables. When we requested a fridge, they brought a fridge that looked like it had been through WWII. Very inconsistent with the modern decor of the room. A third thing is that the valets are very aggressive if you don't want to park your car there. They give you only 20 minutes to check in before who knows what happens to your car. They also don't let you use a cart if a valet doesn't help you.

Most comfortable beds

This is the most comfortable hotel in the area that I’ve personally stayed at, I slept amazing here. Also, the best views for breakfast at the rooftop penthouse dining. I loved it so much that I canceled my other hotel for the following week and rebooked here

Not the best visit but ok

The room I received did not have a city view as promised online. When I arrived, I was assigned a room on the third floor facing a parking lot. I asked for someone to look into the booking and asked for a better view, I was then assigned a room only two floors higher facing the same parking lot. That was a disappointment for the amount of money spent on the room. The carpet in the room is old, frayed at the edges and has stains on it. The lounge chair has stains on it also. The vent cover in the bathroom was loose. My tray of food from dinner my first night sat at the front door for hours after I requested for someone to pick it up. Had I not ordered dinner again, who knows how much longer it would have been there. The lobby is beautiful and smells really good, the staff is friendly and did their best, it’s walkable but that’s about it. The rooms need a major facelift and perhaps some deep cleaning.
