Breakfast was good except for the potatoes-SUPER DRY and bland/hard/crispy. Front desk staff very nice and friendly Bartender seemed annoyed with us asking for drinks about 10 minutes before happy hour ended. Generally a bit unfriendly/unwelcoming Man sweeping room at breakfast was amazingly friendly My room was hot and uncomfortable because the AC wasn’t really working adequately. The hallway stunk like rotten wet cloths The shower grout was filthy/grimy My toilet clogged which sucked but the response to fix it was excellent. I had to call down to get help but there weren’t any instructions on the phone. Most hotels tell have labels on the phone so you know what to press to call people. My fitted sheet on the bed looked dingy and stained. It would be nice to have a light in the hallway by the mirror and perhaps a fan in the living and sleeping areas due to the poor airflow/AC situation. It would also be nice to have the lamp style with the extra plugs on both sides of the bed. I was with friends who had three different rooms and I know one had toilet trouble too. The other one had a loud fan outside their room for most of the stay. Not the worst experience but not the best either. I do like that the door was card entry as it got later.

4 stars because the room I booked AC was out, they did have a room to accommodate me but it was much smaller than the room I original paid for including the bathroom which had a much more outdated shower which didn’t really seem to be as clean as the first room I had. Customer service was great though with getting a tech out promptly to check on the AC when I made the complaint

When we got there, we checked in was great. We went to our room. We walked in. It was hot. The AC wasn’t working. They sent the maintenance man to the our room to check it out and they ended up moving us to another room. It was quick and seamless.

We were so happy with this hotel for the price! The rooms are large and we had a great view of the city out of our window. The staff was great. Overall this was a fantastic deal. The only thing I’d say is that the breakfast wasn’t very good.
