Poor experience

Hotel itself is good and clean, staffing is terrible. Had to wait for everything, car valet 10 mins for someone to appear, coffee shop, 15 mins for someone to appear from the back room. Lounge bar and facilities don’t open till 5pm due to lack of staff. Worse still is not one staff member cared or apologized, seems they don’t care either.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities

The property was very clean & aesthetically pleasing. I loved the scent in the hotel lobby- aromatic, yet not overpowering. The elevators were fast but light enough where it barely felt like they were moving. The room was immaculate. Views of the city buildings, king-sized bed, large flat screen TV, mini fridge, safe, light cotton robe, decent sized desk & sitting area. However, not only was the mattress too soft, apparently it was too high because it was dressed with a flat sheet instead of a fitted, plus the linens were soft, so if a couple engages in activities or if one is an active sleeper, expect the sheets to come undone. Furthermore, the pillows were way too soft, without an option to exchange for firm ones. I didn't eat at the restaurant nor drink at the bar, but I did order room service once. I enjoyed the food but not the additional fees! And lastly, the pool was underwhelming, but served its purpose. From the reception, to the cafe, housekeeping, room service &the security guard who was an older gentleman that worked during the day, almost every staff member I engaged with was friendly, courteous &professional. Jonae (my apologies if I spelled it wrong) greeted me at reception with a big warm smile &personality to match! Maybe because I booked as a VIP member of Expedia but I received a bottle of white wine &a small box of chocolate in my room after check in. Parking &food credits were also a plus. Dining &shopping nearby. Hotel located right off of the highway.
