AC was very loud and squealed in the room. The toilet leaked water all over the bathroom. I told the front desk about the leak before we left for our event, we got back and there had clearly been someone in our room since the soaked toilet water towels were moved but the toilet still leaked. We were also told there was 24/7 valet at check-in but when we got back to the hotel between 10-11p we were told there was no valet and had to park down the block.

When I arrived I was told there was $100 a night incidental ($300 deposit on arrival) theres nothing on the website and/or there app. $50/$100 I get but that was just an unknown inconvenience for a weekend trip. The hotel was nice and clean in a good spot for dinning and fountain square events.

For the price I have expected a much nicer well maintained hotel. The bathroom door was broken in our room, the toilet wouldn’t flush properly. There were drug addicts passed out right outside the door every time we left the building. We travel often and this has been one of the worst stays, for the amount paid.

I travel for work around the world and this by far has to be the most disgusting hotel you’ll ever stay in. If you book this hotel be prepared to feel itchiness in the sheets, hallways that smell like stale cigarettes and be prepared for a dirty tub, a non working phone and arguably the most abrasive staff. The middle of the hotel is basically an echo chamber where if someone is sitting on a balcony you’ll be up all night. The street the hotel is on makes it feel incredibly unsafe. Down the street you will find a dollar mart with drug addicts and homeless people begging for money. I originally booked the hotel for a conference for 4 days and cut my conference short to fly home. Needless to say. The best thing to do is leave.

This hotel is in serious need of updating. Our suite was outdated and in disrepair. Floors scratched, horrible bathroom lighting, recessed bulbs constantly flickering, cracked tiles, outdated TV's (no ability to stream), extremely slow internet, all lighting was outdated. We have stayed here before with higher expectations, especially for the price they charged us. Very disappointed. Will not be back.

The property is well located, with a 10 minute walk to the Riverwalk. Non-valet parking is close to the hotel. My main issue with this stay is with Expedia's relation with the hotel on breakfast. Without going into the particulars, my experience would say don't prebuy breakfast, which is not a buffet style, but essentially a credit in the hotel "coffee shop". Better to just buy in the shop itself.

We checked in and went up to our room. The room had not been cleaned. We came back down and the gentleman next to us checking in also had a dirty room and walked into a woman brushing her teeth in the bathroom. The front desk went to check the new room before we checked in. He was gone for quite some time and I believe he made house keeping clean this room within 5-10 minutes so we didn’t have a second dirty room. I loved this hotel previously but two customers going into dirty, occupied rooms is unacceptable.
