I had a horrible stay & experience. The room next door was literally having a party & screaming all night long until around 4am. I called guest services 3 different times. 1am, 2am & 3am. They said they’d send security to check on them & it was almost like the girl just got louder each time. We didn’t sleep until 4am & then at 8am construction started on a Saturday morning with no where on the website or booking confirmation indicating that there would be construction. Complained to the front desk about our stay & they could only comp us for the parking, which hasn’t even been done. I’d never stay again.

Hotel was under major renovations.. no amenities that were supposed go along with my booking. No houskeeping services, complimentary breakfast was a joke. Bagels, yogurts and a few pieces of fruit that had seen better days. The parking garage is treacherous and worse by people parking wherever they want (not in parking spaces) and nightly parking fee expensive. All in all the stay was really unsatisfactory and I can not recommend this place. Find another hotel in the district there are plenty of better options.

The hotel is very pretty, but it would’ve been nice to know that they were under construction. None of the amenities that they have on their site was available. Elevators did not work. For the price I would have liked to gotten some of my money back. We were very disappointed for our 35th anniversary.

We stayed on 08/26/2025. Please be aware construction and lots of renovations is happening during the early morning. I was woken up to banging noise as early as 7:30am. Ridiculous I had traveled the night before so you can only imagine the chaos. Also I did not know parking structure is under construction too so driving up the ramp is so narrow not much space. We had just purchased a new vehicle and it had left us with major dents to the small compact narrow driveway ramp. I would not recommend this hotel. Very disappointed
