They did not have internet available on the TV which they didn’t tell guests until they arrived. Plus no microwaves in the rooms. Compared to other expensive hotels. Parking was not free all day, only at night.

Property was nice. Was doubled charged after I told the front desk person I had already paid. She charged me again. I caught it and told her she double charged me. She removed the charge only for me to be charged again a few days later…

This room was so sad and right behind the elevator! When I took a shower the water backed up. Called the front desk to clear and the next morning still backing up. The window in the room had black duck tape closing the window, mold on the ceiling in the bathroom. The carpet was vacuumed but behind the night stand dirty… this trip covered several states and one country. The Sheraton at the Portland airport was great, the Fairmont in Vancouver BC which I paid the same amount of money per night eas great! But the Captain Cook was just sad.
