No where to sit and dine
Stay was very nice the only issue we had was that there was no prior notice regarding the state of the two places to eat within the hotel (a huge part of the reason we booked here was to stay put and eat in the hotel.) upon call to the desk that evening discovered the Roof location was closed until 1/11 and we were directed to the downstairs location - upon our arrival down there we were informed that it too was under improvements and was not open to be able to sit at an actual table and eat. Since we had not made any other arrangements, we were forced to dine at the bar. Food was good and drinks were good however we had not planned on spending the money we did to stay at a hotel where we had to dine while sitting at the actual Bar.

Overall a decent stay
Hotel is solid, We had to change rooms because our initial bed sheets were dirty but they were very helpful getting us a new room after I mentioned it. Hotel is a bit older feeling and not super modern but still very nice and I’d stay here again

Old on new
While it may be a little outdated with new on top of old and much needed plumbing, including the toilets for tots, which were so low I felt I was in the woods, leaning up against a tree to do my business. Other than that the service was excellent, and the location is stupendous, right there in “the loop.”
