Discount needed for hotel under construction. Should close their doors.
Pros:

The location was great.

Cons:

The hotel is under construction, dust everywhere. The smell of paint was overwhelming. Noise from drills and construction first thing in the morning. The breakfast was very poor, cold, not like other embassy suite breakfasts. No discount for the inconveniences. Very disappointed.

Pros:

Property was under construction which was not mentioned upon booking.

Cons:

Our room stayed warmer than we would have liked the entire weekend. No matter how low we adjusted the thermostat it stayed up at 69+ degrees but felt warmer and stuffer than what it read.

Pros:

Location was pretty

Cons:

MAJOR renovations with jack hammers in the lobby area, plastic tarps, restaurant closed except for breakfast and very limited menu for dinner. Entire dining room and all public area covered in dust. While the construction workers were there, there was a thick haze of dust everywhere. Indoor pool closed until 6:30 at night until 10. Construction started at am and drilling in the top floors was extremely loud in the rooms. Noise from jack hammers made it impossible to talk to the reception desk, that's how loud it was! They should have closed the entire hotel down for construction. We were not notified before checkin they were under major construction.
