I will preface by saying, the receptionists at the front desk were wonderful and accommodating. However, I could not complete my stay at this hotel. We left around 10:00pm to find a different hotel to stay at. The furniture in the room, couches, and bed frames as well as the carpet were covered in stains. A very large black cockroach crawled out from under the bed. I asked for our room to be switched and they did so, but as soon as we walked into the new room, the fire alarm was beeping for batteries to be changed. They offered to change them quickly, but at that point, I just wanted to get out of there. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this property.

My stay this time was much better. Only thing is having to go to the front desk for linens to swap out. I didn’t have any towels in my bathroom. The worker only wanted to give me one set. I know for a fact they start off with two. Even for single occupancy. I didn’t argue. Just went back upstairs. Made sure to review when my visit was over.

Spartan experience

Room spartan but clean, need to provide hangers for clothes and towels. Getting towels was the most difficult ever…daily. 1st evening staff not nearly as pleasant as 2nd evening staff. No table to sit at for work or eating in room.

There is not an official type desk in the room with a desk chair. Some of us that travel need to do computer work. Smelled like smoke in the room. There is a bar that in the evening was actually open and a nice setting. Parking limited right in front of the entry, was to the far end of the building. Great close proximity to the AT&T center for a concert or game.

The aesthetic of the hotel is vintage which is what caught my eye. I did an early check in. The room I had got there were dirt and stains on the pillows and sheets. The room didn’t have any towels. And it had an old dirt smell. I went to front desk requesting new sheets and pillow cases and towels, the front desk representative was very disrespectful saying that if I wanted clean sheets and towels I needed to call before 11am which I had just checked in. The nice lady that originally checked me in was leaving so I guess there was a shift change. So I go back to my room , I look at the window and there is a car parked right at my window. So I instantly started feeling more uncomfortable. I go to the front desk and ask to just get a new room because someone’s car is right in front of my window , she said “oh that’s just our bartenders car I will ask him to move it” at this point I have somewhere to be and can’t get ready because it took a while for them to move the car so I went back and asked for a refund, she then tried to offer me another room and I had already booked another room because it was too much happening and I was extremely uncomfortable and was receiving horrible service because she kept being smart like she didn’t want to help me
