I got one of the renovated rooms with balcony and it was awesome! The staff were friendly and helpful. The location was also great on a street with some good restaurants. The only downside was that the renovation was ongoing so there was a bit of construction related noise & activities happening during the stay. But they were quite considerate so I wasn't really bothered by it.

Staff was very friendly. Valet parking was nice but had to wait for our car because valet was gone for awhile. Also link to valet was useless. Odor in lobby smelled moldy. Blankets and pillows could have been better. The noise from the street was loud and could hear the renovations. Noise didn’t go into the night too long. Valet and front desk staff was very friendly and coffee and water in lobby was nice.

The hotel is under renovation, but it doesn't seem to be a holistic approach. Some things are very modern and new-looking, while other things are literally falling apart and filthy. The room itself could be very impressive, but several of the new(ish) brass fixtures were installed incorrectly (towel bars upside down) or in odd locations (covering an electrical outlet, for instance). My room was spacious, quiet and clean, but once stepping into the common spaces, there was a stale odor and the carpet and other aspects weren't clean. There is little-to-no soundproofing of rooms, and the room doors slam shut noisily. The downstairs restaurant opened very briefly on Sunday, but nobody came and, after I came back from a 30-minute walk to the capitol, it was closed. Hopefully the renovation will address all these issues.
