Consistently praised as well situated — close to Vanderbilt, Centennial Park and many restaurants/shops; about 15 minutes by Uber to downtown.
Room Quality
7.8
Mixed: rooms are comfortable for many stays, but issues include an oversold reservation leading to sofa-bed use, sofa bed sheets not prepared, slow Wi‑Fi/TV streaming, no in-room phone, and at least one instance of a leaking shower damaging finishes.

Perceived as fair by some, but several guests reported unexpected or higher-than-advertised charges (parking and booking quote disputes), lowering perceived value.

Overall Experience

Disappointing.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Room we booked (2 queens) was “oversold” and one in our party had to sleep on a pullout sofa. Lots of teens (ball team?) roaming facilities. Loud disturbance outside our door after bedtime.

loved the area it is in and how close Vanderbilt and Centennial Parks is
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent

Cons:

, Parking was not what I viewed when I did my reservation. I have the email from booking showing $15 per night, but was charged $25 per night even after showing the front desk clerk .

Pros:

Location and staff were great. The room was comfortable.

Cons:

The room served the purposed for 1 night stay.
Pros:

The location was perfect for what we were in town for. The breakfast was nice with plenty of choices. Room was very clean.

Cons:

The check in was not great as there was very limited parking in front of facility and you had to self park in the parking garage that was very tight parking which was not ideal for me in a dark underground garage. The staff was not super friendly checking us in as it was busy and only one person working desk. However once we got parked and checked in the facility served our one night stay adequately,

Good stay all round
Pros:

Good stay with more to the hotel than it looks when you first arrive. Swimming pool, gym and laundry room are all available.

A perfectly nice room awaited us and the complimentary buffet breakfast was a very nice touch.

The hotel is only maybe 15 minutes by uber from downtown and there are a number of restaurants and other shops nearby as well as Mcdonalds, Starbucks, Wahlgrens etc.

I would also like to record thanks to Larry and Sandrecka who were able to resolve an issue with the third party payment with very little problem.

Definitely a good choice of hotel if visiting this great city.

Stay here about every 6 - 8 weeks...this time the cleanliness and condition of room was not up to st
Pros:

location and staff

Cons:

Room 616 - shower leaks - BAD - soaked the bathroom floor - it is obvious it has been going on for a while as the floorboard tile is coming off the wall from constantly being wet. Things like this should not go unnoticed or unrepaired.
