Great Location!

Very nice stay. Restaurant was terrific. Gym was OK but not great but it got the job done. The room TV didn’t work - could’ve been something as simple as bad batteries in the remote but I didn’t bother contacting the front desk so I just let it go. Great location!

Housekeeping was poor. Old towels that were rough and frayed. Glasses never replaced. Dirt behind door when we arrived 4 days later still there. Very dark rooms. Staff was very friendly and accommodating except the bar tender on 3/31 when we arrived was rude. Probably wouldn’t stay again after what we payed. Have stayed at many Kimpton properties in the past but this one needs to be refreshed.
