Hotel has seen better days

Parking garage off site on a sleepy Sunday evening (no on site valet) made a lot of hay about how they have a right to not accept my pickup truck. If you’re looking for an experience like that consider using the hotel lot. Check in is 100 percent self serve. As in you make your own key and navigate an iPad and hope everything is correct. If one key doesn’t work (in my case) you might get stuck in an elevator for a ride up and down but at least you might make a new friend. One strong suit is this property used to be staff attitude (super upbeat and warm in late 2021, a real low point in the history of staff morale). Now instead you get an iPad. Downstairs cafe would not serve cut fruit at 1130am, had no iced or cold coffee options except hot over ice, and the service vibe was decidedly inconsistent with this hotel groups typical standards. HVAC in my room was set to cool at 67 or 66F and could not be turned to warm. Turning it off the room did not change temp during my entire stay which made it so cold and unpleasant I decided to go home and sleep in my own bed. Sadly this will be my last stay at this property. Would rather pay more for a more reliable and seamless hospitality experience
