Room was clean and dwell appointed. Staff were courteous and very helpful. They allowed us to check out late without hesitation. Hotel had just changed owners and that did not affect our experience. The art has been removed, but that’s fine. It’s hard to see art when you’re asleep.

All staff members were wonderful. Five stars there. Hotel could use a few more amenities and also some updates. Did like that room was cleaned every day without having to request housekeeping. Microwaves in rooms and a better early morning breakfast dining option would be great. Also new curtains and a paint touch up in room.

It's clear this hotel was in the process of changing hands when we stayed there. There were issues with the in-room TV and phone and limited outlets (and none next to the beds). The air filter appeared visibly dirty in both the bathroom and bedroom. The rooms were much smaller than appeared online. We stayed on the 4th floor and the street noise was very loud. Heard from a friend on the 11th floor that it was also loud up there, so may be unavoidable. I hope the new owners clean things up a bit! Otherwise, the staff were very nice and friendly.

This was the worst hotel I’ve ever been too! The sheets were dirty like someone wiped the floor with them, no soap in the bathroom, toilet and shower loud and leaky, tv not working etc. I feel like I should have gotten a refund. I booked the hotel for the art work and it was gone.

The hotel was acquired by Marriott after I made the reservation through Hotels.com. Although they sent email saying they would honor the reservation when we arrived at 6:00 PM they had difficulty finding a reservation and did not have a room ready. They did not offer the same price as reserved blaming everything on the systems not being integrated as of yet. We were eventually offered an upgrade.
