Pretty ok. Great location, friendly staff, clean room with excellent bed and quiet view. Not a place to stay if you have allergies. Down pillow and ducts need cleaning. Toilet paper is the worst, so bring your own. Continental breakfast more limited than says on website. Website also claims you can order hot if you want. Should be you can order out. I will return, because of location, but will come prepared.

Jay was amazing ! They was reliable and helpful! The room was okay. But there was a few times I think the sink was clogged and there was black stuff all in the sink. Also the shower was definitely clogged standing in a pool of water showering. Also the garage doors were broken so it was definitely an inconvenience to get in and out easily.

I was really looking forward to staying here because the photos online looked beautiful, but my experience was extremely disappointing and, at times, genuinely unsafe. Right when we arrived, we noticed a strong smell of gas in the building—especially in the basement parking area and continuing into the elevators and first floor. We reported it to the staff and were told they were aware of it, but they “didn’t know where it was coming from.” That alone was unsettling. We also got stuck in one of the elevators twice and had to pry the doors open ourselves to get out. Clearly, the building is not being maintained properly. The bathroom on our floor looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in some time. The ceiling had chipping paint and what appeared to be mold. The room itself felt old, musty, and worn—not at all like the polished presentation online. One of the most concerning issues was the design of the sliding bathroom door. It overlaps with the closet door, so when one opens, the other closes. It’s very easy to get your fingers caught — and unfortunately, my partner did. He lost part of the tip of his finger and was bleeding. When we tried to call the front desk for basic first aid, the phone in the room didn’t even work. We went downstairs to report what happened, and the response was incredibly disappointing. There was no apology, no sense of concern, and the manager was not available. The lack of care around a clear safety hazard

I travel quite a bit and this was the worse hotel I’ve stayed at in years. The room was dirty, especially the carpets. The bathroom shower was clogged. Even basic things like sufficient towels weren’t in place. Also, the front desk staff were rude and cold. I noticed they didn’t greet returning patrons or make eye contact with them (myself included). Just a bad stay overall.

The staff itself was wonderful. The room itself was a bit outdated and stains on the carpet, but it was definitely functional for our needs. Unfortunately, while we were there the gate to go out of the self parking garage was busted so we had to take a risk and go basically out through the in And luckily no problems occurred. It was just a minor inconvenience. Did not like being charged the extra $30 for the amenity fee per Day as we did not feel it was worth that. Did not seem to be an option to not pay for that. At this point, I’m unsure if we would stay here again.

While the room was fine, all the ammenities were misleading. The breakfast was continental (not complementary), the wifi was slow, and the parking garage was broken in a dangerous way. There was also a ring camera in the room that felt violating.
