I expected more from the Hyatt Brand. I took an accessible suite with 2 beds for my 3 person family. There is 1 elevator bank for the building and the halls are very long. 1 The suite for disabled people is at the farthest point from the elevator. Literally the last room on the hall. Huh? 2 The room had 2 full size beds, not queens. Does any hotel still use full mattresses? The beds are really too soft. You actually sink in. Why? BTW my husband glasses fell behind an end table. We had to move it to reach them. Filthy. 3. No tissues, No hair dryer, no plastic laundry bag. OK......but why? No hair dryer is unheard of. 4. The one that sent me over the edge was breakfast. The room was mid construction. Walls were taped and spackled. It was brightly lit in blinding white lite like all construction sites. Folding tables etc. The actual breakfast was pawltry. They werent ready a half hr after start. Some bad bread choices, hard boiled eggs, bananas, cheap no name cereals, 1 chafing dish with half empty tray of sausage, empty scrambles and cheap tater tots. Inedible in a bad environment. There was another large conference rm a fews doors down that looked in good shape sitting unused. The last time I challenged a charge on Amex was at least 20 yrs ago. My 200. dollar stay was seriously sub par so I may choose that option. Sept. 2025.

I will not stay at this property ever again. The rooms smelled. The plumbing was messed up so we had to switch room. Once we switched rooms the tub had brown marks and the toilet was still messed up. So we had to switch rooms for a third time. They are under renovation so the hot breakfast ended up being cold. It was not a good experience. They ended up refunding me for at least one night of my stay.

The bar has been closed. The room door was bent, you have to shoulder check it to make it latch. The room was non-smoking but wreaked of cigarette smoke.

Hotel is being renovated. Main desk area was a mess. Elevators were very dirty. Breakfast area was also under renovation. The hotel should have let people know it was under renovation when reservations were made.

Beautiful Studio by far!

This was by far tge bedt stsy ive had away from hone. My son and i attended services in Petersburg but stayed here. The immediate look when we entered the room was comforting. There were a few gairs in ge shower, but that was exscusable. The room is set up like a studio apartment and room semi-divider. Stainkess steel ice bucket with glasses not paper cups. Ceramic coffee mugs for hit beverages not paper. This was done so perfect! Front desk was very pleasing and polite. We were greeted coming and going! We will be returning! Cant wait for the pool to reopen!
