It was a loud environment - could hear doors closing at night and people rolling suitcases down the halls over us.

Prime location, right next to the State House, didn’t have a view of it but it must’ve been really nice. The lobby is inviting with great staff and an amazing scent. Room was very clean, the shower had great pressure, and bed was very very comfortable. There’s a mall on the next block and was in a very walkable area to the fountains.

The hotel overall is lovely; however, our room had two issues. 1) The shower had a considerable amount of mold in it and 2) though the view to the State House was nice, the window was so filthy we couldn’t even take a picture through the window of the gorgeous Capital building. Otherwise, all was very good.

Bathroom needs professional work

The staff are all wonderful, from the valets to the restaurant to the front desk. The room we had was large and clean, but for the bathroom. While I do love a shower with good pressure, this was akin to a fire house that bathed the entire room in water. This had obviously happened in the past: there was water damage to the doors, walls, and floor. The tiles wobbled under your feet as you walked. That bathroom needs to be addressed by a professional.

Very clean; staff and valet very attentive; gym was large, well equipped and clean; lots of high quality products provided in room such as cream, body wash, etc.; beds were very comfortable and clean with thick comforter (also had extra blanket in closet); surrounding area was safe and beautiful to walk around during day or evening with river views and bridges all over downtown.

Nice hotel.

Staff was awesome, hotel was nice, recent experience with hotels.com rooms is that you don’t ever get the best rooms for the price range. This room looked out on a roof top and garbage cans. Last night, I was next to the elevator bank. Tonight, I asked to change rooms because the room was very smelly.
