Seemed like there are major housekeeping issues at this property. We had to wait in the lobby for over and hour for a clean room, and when we got to the room the body wash and conditioner bottles were completely empty. Also the lotion was previously used and was half empty. Also, the AC was incredibly loud and the toilet splashed water outside the bowl whenever it was flushed. There was an event going on at the hotel and loud music could be heard clearly up in our room until almost 11pm.

I loved that they were able to secure a microwave for my room I really didn’t want to waste the food I had, but the ice maker was down my entire stay. There was a sign that read “sorry ice maker has an issue that needs to be fixed. People need ice . It’s clear there was no effort to fix it the entire weekend.

Nice, but not great…
Hotel is nice and staff was great, but there’s just a bunch of small things that added up to just 3*… ice machine on floor is crazy loud - can’t imagine if my room was close to it… A/C unit in room was really loud… handle/bar for shower was loose… etc

We stayed here last year and it seems like the property needs to be renovated as well as the rooms/bathrooms. Not sure if we were on an older side or not but the carpet is worn, dated and dirty. We took advantage of the breakfast buffet which was pretty decent. However, the service was poor.

The bathrooms have a sliding door with a gap between the walls so if you’re not personally interested in having others live in that existence with you, this isn’t it. So much air flow, I was surprised the paint was peeling in the shower. Even the bathrooms in the lobby had questionable design choices. The free Book of Mormon and bible provided a nice re-up on rolling papers though. Since neither is worth reading.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Everything was perfectly adequate, and many parts of the facility where above average, thus the 4 stars instead of 3. Everything worked. Nothing was gross. The bed was very comfortable with plenty of pillows. There were sufficient in-room supplies for coffee, clothes hanging and ironing, and modern TV watching. The doors on the closet were classy. There was no bathtub, but the shower was good. The halls and elevators where well used but not yet in need of replacement. The lobby was noisy, with two wedding parties, but the 7th floor was quiet, except for when the partiers passed by on their way to bed.

Room design flaws!
The restaurant hostess and servers were friendly, courteous, and helpful. Food was good. The room design lacked a few things: no towel racks, odd lighting, a floor-length mirror facing sideways that was hard to access, and frosted glass door to bathrm, directly facing toilet -- not very private!
