I stayed in one of the suites with a pull out sofa bed. They brought sheets and blankets to make up the bed. The blankets were soooo scratchy and old, just completely gross - I should've insisted on a comforter but it was late. I'm still dealing with a rash on my hands and arms that I picked up from the blankets three weeks later. Furious! AVOID THIS HOTEL! Also, its impossible to manage the temperature in the suites with the doors to the master closed so someone was always too hot or too cold. The valet was a disaster at night with the entire entry area full of parked cars so we had to go to a parking lot a few blocks away. Lastly, the hotel is under major renovation which was not advertised when I booked it so the make shift front desk is in a conference room.

Stay away while this property is under a “facelift.” It’s real construction where there hotel has NO LOBBY or reception. The “check in” is a conference room. They are still charging their 5 star rate and apologizing for the construction with a twenty dollar drink voucher. No hot water in my sink and never taken care of. I stayed there to have a “beautiful hotel” experience and was terribly disappointed.

Short business stay
When I arrived there was no doorman and another guest had to help me with my suitcase up the front stairs. Then there was a long line to check in and I was in a rush to get to a dinner appointment. The room was nice except that the rug by the bed needed vacuuming. There were two circular tables in the room - one high and one low but no desk which was crucial for me. When I left none of the doormen greeted me until just as my Uber was pulling up, then one of them came up to the car to help put my suitcase in the trunk but only at the same time as the Uber driver got out of the car. Not a very personalized visit at all. If you want to be anonymous and are not in town on a business trip then this hotel is probably fine but otherwise...
