The heat didn't work in our room. Maintenance came twice and it still didn't stay on. 58 degrees in our room. I also question the gous keeping staff...i don't think the bed was freashly made. We weren't even asked if we wanted to change rooms. The manager stated ..well you booked through a 3rd party, so there isn't anything i can do. Not happy at all.

Great location with a lot to walk to and one block closed down for a Halloween party. Front desk staff are very helpful but the bar staff not so much. Breakfast was tasty and the coffee delicious but I would have liked it to be available till 10:00 instead of 9 or 9:30 on weekends.

Front desk staff sent me on a wild goose chase when I asked for directions to the parking lot. I even confirmed that it took me a long time to find the hotel after I parked and asked if they were sure where I had to go, but they sent me to the opposite direction- morons!!!

Beware of Room Assignment
Certain employees were kind but others were extremely rude and curt for no reason. Overall, decent hotel but seemed a little unclean at arrival. The noise levels were something to note. We faced the side of the building close to the alley. HOLY COW the trashcan noises at all hours of the night ruined sleep the entire stay. Booker beware of room assignment.

No internet for me, for reasons corporate and the property were unable, seemingly unwilling, to assist with. 5 Days of not working not cool. Wallet taken from the front desk after I left it there for less than 5 minutes at late night check-in. My bad of course, but staff unwilling to ever go to "the office" to see if it was in lost and found. Unwilling to review security camera footage. All staff super-friendly, but um yeah--icky feels knowing one of them was $200 richer. Room pretty clean. Room comfortable.

Loved the location, dining options, room decor, bathroom design, accessibility, staff professionalism, staff friendliness and consideration. All the front desk staff were courteous, friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. Only negative was that the room was too small. There should be more draws for clothing.
