Disappointed this time.
I love the Cardinal and try to stay there whenever I’m in the area. This time, I found that the pillows were ROCK hard and so thick it was impossible to sleep. Our necks were very sore for the 4 days we were there. Still hurting! Mattresses were lumpy and room service mixed up our order 3 out of 4 times. The croissants were very stale, too. Housekeeping left the accumulating dirty glasses all over the room the entire time.

clean and classy with a neo historical/vintage vibe. rooms are unique from an interior decor standpoint. favorite thing about the room is there is a tub spout shared with the shower BUT a separate spout for a handheld. nice touches like that make it unique.

The customer service representative was unpleasant throughout the entire interaction of checking in. He was outside smoking as we entered the lobby, when he finished his cigarette he stated that we should have let him know we were checking in. There were zero nicety’s, he was shaking as if he was furious, took longer than usual to check us in, especially since we had a reservation. The experience was upsetting. To say the least! Hotel is a nice accommodation, we typically stay there when visiting Winston, unfortunate that this transpired.

Noisy at times. Dog friendly and dogs are barking at night…slowest elevators I have ever seen in my life… very overpriced for what it is…you would think that you are lodging in Chicago or NY.
