I was attending a convention with 1,000+ people. They only had 2 of 4 elevators working. It was chaos and a lot of frustrated people. Hopefully they can get those repaired soon. Wish they would have gotten their technicians there on Sat morning when they realized there was a problem.

We selected this property because it was convenient. It was a wonderful experience! We were celebrating our Wedding Anniversary and were treated like royalty by all staff - from front desk, to parking, to dining, to housekeeping. The time on property was safe, restful, relaxing, and provided not only a good night's rest, but also, because of its location, was able to serve as an easy, convenient "hub" for our activities in the area: shopping, entertainment, and fine dining away from the property. The management and all staff were very courteous, personable, knowledgeable, and professional as well as efficient! We will definitely be back!

This hotel used to be great. But now it needs a key to go to every floor. Which was a pain in the ass sometimes the key card wouldn’t work and it would take me all the way up to someone else’s floor. It was also incovnient when I ordered food because I had to come down to get the food or get a friend . Last time I was there it didn’t need a key. I like convenience when I’m staying at a hotel .will not stay here again.
