Beklediğim kaliteli ve hizmet yoktu. Odamızı ikinci gün temizlenediler, 3. Gün yapılan temizlikte çok yetersizdi.
Pros:

Oda büyüklüğü

Cons:

Kahvaltı çok yetersiz. Tuz gibi basit ihtiyaçlar bile yetersiz.

Loved our room!!!
Pros:

Breakfast was good but we were hoping for a Belgian waffle maker…

Cons:

The pool is tiny and looks dirty, probably needs to be drained and repainted. A hot tub would be nice!

Wish we didn’t have to move our vehicle by 3pm, our event wasn’t over until 6pm and e hands to move our vehicle and pay parking in a downtown lot after paying to keep our vehicle in the underground parking over night.

Just the oasis we needed to enjoy a play at Hancher and dinner upstairs at the Vue. Nice mini-vacation.
Pros:

Everything, really. Comfortable, nicely appointed, everything we needed. We even found charcuterie and wine in the shop for a long afternoon.

Cons:

Splitting hairs, but I like some warm colors around. It’s nicely contemporary with shades of colors, cool colors. The latest decorating colors.

Overall our stay was good. The room was clean and the bed was comfy.
Pros:

The breakfast had a nice offering of hot and cold items. The dining area was nice and clean.

Cons:

We couldn’t get the TV to work in our room and when I called down to the front desk and told them - I was told to turn the TV off and turn it back on and that should work. It did not. I decided the person at the desk didn’t know or didn’t care so I did not call back down. It was very disappointing.
