Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I wanted to like this hotel, especially after reading the reviews. My initial room was not clean enough to stay in - moved to a new room sometime after 10pm. Staff argued with me when I asked for ice - argued ice was in the fridge when it wasn't. Pay attention to the reviews as most are not for people staying at the hotel itself. Rooms on the 5th floor are noisy and you can smell the kitchen. Rooms do not have an iPad - they are Lenovo tablets. The tablet in the first room provided me with more access to actually utilize the tablet than the second room. The mini Bose speaker in the second room would not connect to the Lenovo tablet. The staff that work the front desk are generally unhelpful and unpleasant. I informed them that it was my first stay and didn't know anything about the hotel - I was shown the elevator. Plenty of opportunities for revenue lost. Asked the staff to replace the stained towel in my bathroom. Instead, a pile of towels was sent to my room and the stained towel remained. The period era antique cobwebs on the light in the first room were a nice touch. I assume the black stuff on the bed was a horrible stain from the iron. The mini fridge in the room is stocked with hotel choice beverages - you touch, you buy. Not sure if they really do housekeeping two times a day. They did turn down the bed two out of the three nights. The bed was not touched the night they placed me in the new room.
