This room was not as pictured when we booked it. The bathroom was pictured with a sink and counter, ours had tiny pedestal with no place for anything. The bathroom was 3 X 5!!! Our reservation came with free breakfast which we did not receive (they didn't even have breakfast except for starbucks). Bathroom door had caked on dust. Room was so tiny, you could barely walk between bed and bureau. It was NOT the room requested based on pics

Carpet in room was worn and very dirty, when told front desk they agreed and said room needed renovation, yet we paid $383 per night just before tourist season ( 2 bedrooms in single room). Ate at restaurant on hotel rooftop, we were seated and waited for approx. 20 minutes, no wait staff came over, had to go down stairs to get someone to take our order. Food was average to good, but at $62 for a fillet and $10 for a bagette, it should have been much better. Lobby was very historic and inviting, but our stay there was definately not worth the price.

Bed was a good mattress but on a flimsy frame so it moved a lot when the other person moved. Not like memory foam. Carpet in room was dirty and bathroom was incredibly small.

The hotel was clean and comfortable. We had a very quiet room so rest was easy to come by. Having a restaurant at the top of the hotel was very nice because we could have a lovely meal and a drink and not worry about having to drive anywhere. The only downside to this hotel is the parking options. You have to park away from the hotel and feed the meter so you don't get ticketed or towed. That is annoying.

We reserved a junior suite. When we arrived, the carpet in the suite was very damp, and there was a carpet drying machine blowing. It was an unlivable suite. The hotel did find us a room with a king bed, but said they could not give us a refund or discount on the room rate since it had been booked through Expedia.
