Is advertised as a 5 star hotel, it might have been one 20 years ago but it is in dire need of updating. First night i had ink stained sheets that were threadbare in some areas, there were small tiles in the floor of the shower that were missing or set incorrectly so the edge was pointing up. Mirror in the bethroom was also peeling off the back and the shoer leaked pretty heavily onto the floor. I could hear the water running through the pipes above the room all night. Second night was better they moved us to a new room that was in much better condition, applied a discount to the first night and gave us $50 in food vouchers to their restaurant downstairs

excellent visit and LOVE the new Italian Steakhouse on site. Check-in personnel were excellent! Housekeeping this visit was disappointing. They missed 2 of 3 nights of cleaning and didn't restock coffee items or shower items. There was a dirty Swiffer pad laying in the hallways for 2 days...

Front desk and valet staff were extremely nice and helpful. Make sure you read the in room amenities - No fridge, no coffee/tea maker. Shower water pressure was a light rain, if you like that. Toilet flushing, watch it swirl for 90 seconds and try again. TV didn’t work and maintenance came by while we were out and “fixed it” only to have it stop working again after trying to change the channel. Food in the bar was subpar for the price. $20 for a burnt crab cake and another $10 for an overdressed Caesar Salad with no flavor. Won’t be returning in December.

We were very excited to have a hotel close by the wedding we attended, but after our arrival (which was late in the evening) when we entered the hotel lobby, there was a very unusual odor (almost like a sewer smell). My husband and I just shrugged that off, as we were both exhausted. However, when we took showers, the water wasn’t draining well at all, so we were left standing in several inches of dirty water while we tried to shower. The worst part of the stay was that around 2 am, we all 4 woke up drenched in sweat because the temperature was almost 80 degrees in the room, yet the thermostat was set to the cool setting and we couldn’t get it to change. My daughter went to the gym to cool off and I had to sit next to the cold window to cool down. We didn’t complain at that point because it was so late. When we checked out the next morning, the front desk told us they would comp us for half of the bill, but only refunded us for the $25 valet parking. We were told they couldn’t do anything more except give us another one night stay because we booked through a 3rd party. One positive note, though….. the coffee at the coffee bar downstairs was excellent. We couldn’t make coffee in our room because the coffee maker didn’t work either.
