Women's Conference Stay
Pros:

This place was better than expected. Better than the pictures. CLEAN, super bright hallways and decor. Staff was FANTASTIC and went, in my opinion, above and beyond. Would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND and would stay again. Hailey at the front desk provided us with outstanding guest service and the manager on her shift (forgive me for not recalling your name) She was ALSO gave us phenomenal gest services as well. Very pleased with the friendly, kind staff on all the nights of our stay. Gooooood JOB!!!

Cons:

Nothing not to like. Would stay here always if needed. Great rooms and bright, modern, CHEERY decor!!

Pros:

A truly enjoyable experience from beginning to end. The hotel staff were friendly and efficient with check in. The room was clean, beautifully decorated and had a spacious, thoughtful and comfortable layout. The bed and pillows were comfortable; oversized shower with great water pressure and plenty of hot water; multiple mirrored vanity areas; nice sized wardrobe with drawers for storage; high quality linens and towels. The bar on the ground level has a nice cocktail menu and the bartenders were very hospitable. Will definitely stay again when visiting Norfolk.

The disappointments and may lead us to avoid returning but not sure if there are any other choices
Pros:

Glass sculptures are beautiful as are the glass sinks in the rooms. The bar hostess was very friendly. Room size was excellent and TV worked easily.

Cons:

Arrival was most disappointing. the Valet blocked only parking space with own car and the front desk was rather unfriendly. All this can be corrected by management. Culture seemed to involve doing as little as possible for guests and having an attitude with clear evidence of lack of training. Our room offered a coffee machine but no outlook to plug it in. Fortunately I carry a multiplug extension cord. Window blinds heavy and cumbersome to operate

Nice but ...
Pros:

The room size and the bathroom size was nice as was the view.
The Illy coffee.

Cons:

The window blinds. Difficult to roll down and up...and so noisy.
The sundries. The smell is like a cheap boys body spray, and the body gel wash and hand was were the same fragance.
The bed was too soft and we both awoke with sore backs.
