Avg one night stay for a second timer

Two complaints: • Rooms are so paper think course to each other that you can basically hear others conversations from 10 ft away. Ntm that the doors to the rooms have no slam stopper on them that other guest make noise and often vibrations to other rooms. • The white sheets need to either be cleaned differently or replaced entirely. There were marks on them that were set in.

Capital Cozy

The hotel is very convenient. It's close to the train station, and local bars. There's an events stadium nearby. The hotel itself was very nice for the cost of stay. It seriously exceeded my expectations. I want the staff there to know that I appreciate the comfort they provided there.

Nice hotel

Would have been nice if the hotel offered early check in as we had to kill 8 hours in the heat before they allowed us to check in. The gym was an embarrassment - treadmill didn't work, random unmatching weights, the elliptical was broken. Training is very important to us and the main reason we booked this hotel (because they had a fitness center). Aside from that, staff was great, the continental breakfast was amazing, the room was clean and nice.

Front desk staff does not communicate clearly, we had multiple issues. Room is aged and in need of an update. There is no ventilation so in the summertime the room remained humid at all times (towels stayed damp) while the clunky/noisy AC ran nonstop. Tub wouldn’t drain during a showers. This hotel has seen better times, but its location to the heart of downtown is why we selected it for coming to the capitol groove festival.
