Beautiful hotel, rude staff
The decor of the hotel is beautiful, but the staff was very rude and lazy. The staff appeared to be in slow motion, attempting to do least possible work before they clocked out. It took us two hours after check in time before our room was clean. The valet initially refused to valet us because our vehicle was too big. The side conversations between the staff was more important than their job. We got “the intimidation stare” if we interrupted their side talk. I got a $30 voucher for the two hour delay in check-in, which was nowhere near worth my time.

Poor Quality Food for Price-items missing
The only big disappointment was the dining experience at the hotel. Specifically, we ordered three shrimp cocktail at $18 each. The menu said it came with avocado, tomato, and red onion. When we received our order, there were five shrimp in each on a bed of greens. The dish did not reflect the menu or price. Our previous experience at this restaurant was much better. Hopefully this was a one-time glitch.

Overall Good Stay with Slight Issues
The room was very spacious and clean. You could smell that all the linen was fresh and clean. They have great amenities here as well. The downside of this hotel is that you have to park across the street and there were no luggage carts available. Had I been traveling with only my daughter, I would have had to make multiple trips taking her inside and out across a busy street. That is a big safety issue. The biggest issue I had was that I had to keep stopping multiple times to answer the phone for the front desk. They kept calling for me to pay the remaining balance because there was a communication issue between their technology and my bank. With having to answer the phone call so many times, I was LATE for my GRADUATION. I had to stop getting ready to call my bank, and had my bank on speaker phone with the front desk on speaker phone to show the front desk my bank was not receiving any communication from them. They called multiple times after I hung up the phone. I had an energetic three year old I was trying to get ready and myself. These constant calls took time away from me getting ready and hence made me late for my graduation. The other issue I had was that you had to sign in to the apps to use them and the live tv would go out and turn to a blank black screen. I tried to turn off and turn on the tv to get it fixed, but it didn't work. The hotel is beautiful, but the above issues really makes me question if I would want to stay here again.

Okay stay
Hotel is okay. King size bed felt like we were sleeping on a board. Hotel staff called me to the front desk the day after check in to pay my deposit when I paid it at check in. Staff apologized. Bar and kitchen doesn’t stay open late. We stayed for the fireworks and it was a good location to walk to see the fireworks.
