Loved the bartender because we had to hang out there for several hours before the 4:00 check in, which we were told the room still wasn’t ready. We didn’t get into the room until nearly 5:00 because the keys weren’t working. Absolutely no assistance from the housekeeping staff to access the room. Front desk staff were nice.

The stay started by not getting the bed arrangement we had asked for. The next day I ended up paying $40 for a mediocre breakfast because I went to the restaurant right between the two wings of the hotel! Apparently this restaurant is not part of the hotel but is right in the middle of it! Makes absolutely NO sense. The two actual restaurants that offered 10% off didn’t open until 11:30 AM. For breakfast you had to walk 3 blocks to find a restaurant affiliated with the hotel that actually served breakfast. I finally found the pool but had to be directed to it. On our last day the elevator broke down! I spoke to someone at the front desk who assured me they were looking into it. An hour later when checking out and asking about the elevator, everyone at the front was VERY surprised as apparently nobody knew about it! I have a rare lung disease which makes it very difficult for me to climb stairs up to the 3rd floor where our room was. Luckily I was with my cousin who was able to carry our luggage down. The staff at the front desk was very unpleasant. This was probably the WORST hotel experience I ever had! Next time I will go back to my go to hotel on Collins Ave where the elevator doesn’t break down, breakfast is included, and the staff is always pleasant!
