We enjoyed our stay. The staff was friendly, the beds comfortable and the room was clean. The rooms needed more light and the shower was awful. The water trickled out and was either hot or freezing. With that being said we’d still stay here again. The location is excellent!

The most terrible experience! I booked through Expedia and had reservation confirmed and when I got to the hotel Sheraton said they ran out of rooms.. they relocated me to hotel nearly 30min away!! No compassion, no offer to pay for my cab, they just said sorry and kicked me out.. it’s the most horrible thing I ever experienced in my life of travels. I had my other friends booked at same hotel as we all traveled for an event. It’s absolute disappointment. Neither Expedia or Sheraton made any attempt to reach me and notify me that they ran out of rooms, whatever that means!!!

Louis at the front desk is PHENOMENAL. He was extraordinarily helpful. It's.obvious that he really enjoys his job and that he actually enjoys taking care of guests. We also had a wonderful experience at the rooftop bar. The view is gorgeous!! Walking to the Township Auditorium was super easy. That was so much more convenient than trying to Uber. Overall an incredible stay!

Lots of good dining options nearby. Parking is valet, but on weekends there’s a free public lot across the street. Room was a bit small, but it was clean and the bed was comfortable. Missed some things that I feel should be standard, like USB ports for charging devices.

Lisa, Hilton Head

Liked: Cleanliness
I specifically asked for a room with a tub at check in and was given one that didnt. Rather than meeting me at new room, I was told to come to lobby to get key. I was told there was breakfast in the vault in the morning, restaurant was closed. Room was outside of housekeeping area with banging and conversation late at night and early in the morning. Every floor outside of rooms was atomically hot - unsure if there was a heating issue, but wow. Room service was prompt and good, however there was no menu in the room or on the tv. The menu brought to me was so poorly photocopied I could only read the top 2/3 of the menu. A friend tried to send me a bottle of champagne friday night. The desk told her my room number (security??) so she could call the restaurant. Restaurant put her on old 30 mins the first call, 20 the second before she ultimately gave up. Not impressed with this hotel whatsoever.

This hotel is overpriced, from check in the hotel staff seemed bothered, took them about 15 mins to complete my check in. The hotel was almost emptied yet the lobby bathrooms were out of toilet paper and dirty. My room had a weird smell. Breakfast was decent but again the staff seem annoyed by peoples presence. Just go somewhere else.

Shower was never cleaned as the soap dispenser was empty and there was a travel toothpaste on the shower shelf. Phone didn't work to call down for service. Club room was never stocked with coffee cups. Very noisy at night due to location of busy intersection but otherwise staff was friendly and location was convenient to shops and restaurants
