My husband and I were excited to stay here for his birthday weekend to see a concert on Sunday afternoon. Unfortunately, we experienced several problems during our two-day stay. First, the shower walls had mold down the tiles. Second, the bed and pillows were so soft that it killed our backs both days. Third, on the morning of Day 2, we asked the concierge for bath towels because we didn't have any. She said they don’t keep towels at the desk so she would notify the maid so she could leave them in our room when she cleaned it. A few hours later, we ended up asking the maid on our floor twice for towels, but they never arrived. After returning from lunch and seeing no towels or a clean room, my husband and I went down to the concierge desk again to request the towels. That concierge brought towels to us within 10 minutes. This long delay all morning and afternoon caused us to leave late for the concert, thus we ran into a lot of traffic. We ended up missing 40 minutes of the concert. When we returned, our room still wasn’t cleaned. We won’t be staying at this hotel again because these problems ruined what should have been a fun birthday weekend.

Parking is inconvenient, its a long walk from the garage to the lobby, then even further to your room. Food is average. The bar service is mediocre. Overall, it is a beautiful place, but the service did not meet my expectations
That's a long walk from the reception area to the elevator, which only 1 of 3 works

When we arrived, no greeter no front desk long walk to find anyone who worked there. Finally found front desk, only register was working. One elevator working two broken at 3:40pm with checkin time being 4pm. Crowded. Finally got to room, to find dust bunnies and dirty carpet. Decided to back down stairs because I wanted ice, ice machine not working my floor. I wanted Pepsi and ice, scantly clad drinks and snack area was pitiful. Front desk clerk seem to think this was sufficiently stocked. Please dont stay at this over priced old hotel. Find another hotel with better customer service and cleaniness.

Very disappointed. The rooms do not have microwaves. The microwave’s are located on select floor, not very convenient . In My room, none of the USB charging ports work. When you enter the main area of the room, there are no light switches. You have to walk around turning on lamps individually. Parking is less than ideal. It’s a long walk from the garage to the front desk and an even longer walk to your rooms. So if you have any disabilities that make it difficult for you to walk long distances, don’t stay here. This is my first and last stay at this facility.

The king room was nice as expected, however you would expect a microwave at this price. We were advised there were microwaves on 3 floors. Not cool. We were evacuated at 3:30 and 9:30am for fire in the bldg. Not cool. The staff was not the welcoming customer service we have received in past stays. When asked about the fire evacuations,the response was a cold “we are looking into it”. Our next stay in the area will not be here. Pot was being smoked and permeated the entire 6th floor.
