The service at the restaurant is a joke. Delivered my main meal at the same time as my salad and then waited 10 minutes for my cocktail. Never again.

Not nearly as good as the reviews say.

My wife and I stayed here while attending our son's college orientation. The best part of our stay was the size of the suite, with plenty of space to stretch out. There were several areas that were below average for us: -The room felt dated and and older. -The bathroom was not well kept. The sink had very sloppy caulking and always looked dirty, the tiled floors needed to be redone, and the shower had visible rust and dirt in the glass door and tile. -The carpet on the side of the bed was lumpy, like there were socks under the carpet. -The mattress was very uncomfortable. The sides, head, and foot edges were rigid and stiff and was softer in the middle. This caused my wife and I to sink and roll to the center of the bed. -The pillows were thick and dense. Coupling the pillows with the way the mattress was, made it difficult to find a comfortable position for our head, neck, and back areas. -The room always felt dark. Even with all of the lights on in the room, it never seemed bright. -The elevators are very small. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. We enjoyed our time with our son, but the hotel unfortunately diminished the overall experience.

The location is unique and the hotel is a refined and updated classic. I've been coming here for about 25 years off and on and still love this hotel. My only disappointment this last visit is that I asked for a room with a view. Since it's summer and I was on a lower floor, the only "view" was of the trees across the street. If a great view is important to you, perhaps make the reservations in person, not online.
