I cant suggest this hotel. My husband and travel a lot for work and pleasure. The Autograph collection of hotels usually provides a higher level of customer service and a bit of luxury. Sorry to say, the Glass Light in Norfolk is not it. The woman at the desk during checkin was unfriendly and when she assigned us to a second floor room, I asked the chances for one on a higher floor. She immediately got defensive and said the other rooms were not clean yet. When I asked if they would be ready at check in time 4pm, she told me she couldn't guarantee that. Huh? So I have a reservation and check in starts at 4 but....?? Then she belligerently asked if we were going to wait, this unknown time frame for the "chance" at a higher floor room. My husbsnd had work call to prep for, so we took the second floor room. It was not properly cleaned, so while he sat in his meeting, I used the cleaning wipes to clean the counters, bathroom and walls (yes there was some stain on the wall). The room was missing a chair for the "desk" and the table for the rocker chair. The room was not cleaned by housekeeping any of the 4 nights we stayed although we requested it. They gave us new towels -by our request and we had to ask for toilet paper. The room was also very dark and limited lighting for a hotel named Glass Light. The location is fantastic and the bar is great. Just don't stay there. Valet is a mess too. It was just so disappointing as Marriott Silver patron and frequent traveler.

EVERYTHING was great ! The room was very clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful with a few personal situations. We loved our room location and view of the city (corner room) The bed was SO comfortable ! I can't say enough about the restaurant, their staff and menu as well ~ We had an event at Norfolk Hilton The Main for the weekend, however SO glad we chose to stay with Glass Light Hotel instead. We thoroughly enjoyed the art collection throughout the hotel and next door ! Great atmosphere all the way around ~

The heat in our room did not work properly. At check in the heat was off and the temp was 65F in the room. We immediately turned the unit on and it took 30 minutes to come on then turned off after only 10 minutes. We called the front desk and they said they would send someone up. Took a while but the system eventually came back on and then the maintenance guy finally showed up. He said it would take about an hour for the room to warm up due to no insulation in the outside walls. The first night the heat seemed fine. The second night, we woke up and the room was back at 65F. We also called the front desk for fresh towels or second day there, an hour went by and we had to call down again. 30 minutes later, still nothing. My husband had to end up going down to get them and she gave him two washcloths and two hand towels instead of full sized. Will not be returning anytime soon if ever.
