I think a portion of this hotel is more renovated than others. This is my second stay at this hotel and I recall the room during my first stay to be more modern, clean, and newly renovated. That said my room during the most recent visit was still fine, it was spacious but the furniture and other details were a little worn out/older. I found the walls were quite thin, I could hear snoring from the adjacent room at night. The water pressure was not very good and the elevators were so slow. Not major issues, but just things I noticed. I did appreciate the two bottles of water for the guests. However besides this, the hospitality felt a little lacking, some more toiletries would’ve been nice, a lot of hotels nowadays don’t really leave anything for the guests anymore, which is a little disappointing. The location is great, though, right downtown so you can walk to all of the attractions if you were in the city for the touristy things. Would’ve been nice if continental breakfast was included. Staff were professional, quick, and friendly at the desk. Overall, not a bad experience, just wasn’t anything to write home about.

We enjoyed our time at the hotel, and can recommend it to another traveler. There were some minor issues at check in and with our room and the hotel management was very quick and diligent to be sure all the problems were corrected. We wish the issues never occurred but the hotels response was excellent. Most of the staff deserved 5 stars

I was promised a parking spot for the car coming in less than 2 hours for my spouse. I checked with the front desk staff a second time, maybe a half hour later and was told again that he is to go to front desk and they would direct him to this location. When he arrived, the staff told him they had no recollection and no spots available.
