Categories

Cleanliness
6.6
Multiple guests reported strong smells (bleach, mold/musty) and a dirty pool; a few noted rooms were very clean—overall mixed but leaning negative.
Service
9.3
Several reviews praise front desk and staff as accommodating and above-and-beyond, though there are isolated reports of unhelpful check-in and slow/shuttle issues.
Location
9.2
Consistently cited as a strong point: close to the airport, mall nearby and convenient shuttle to events, though access to the front lobby roads was sometimes tricky.
Room Quality
7.2
Beds and pillows frequently described as comfortable, but some rooms had odors, dated corridors and inconsistent room condition reports.
Amenities
7.3
Shuttle and gym receive positive mentions; pool, hot tub and jacuzzi had issues (dirty/closed) and coffee/restaurant service hours were limited.
Value for Money
6.8
Several guests felt the stay was not good value: expensive on-site items, paid breakfast costs, and deposit/refund concerns.
Food and Beverage
7.8
Complaints about limited coffee availability, expensive buffet pricing and at least one report of undercooked food, balanced by presence of an on-site restaurant.
Overall Experience
9
Many guests had positive experiences (good location, helpful staff, comfortable beds), but there are notable negative incidents (noise/parties, shuttle delays, smells) that lower consistency.

Would not recommend! Find a hotel that values your sleep and comfort!
Pros:

We booked the room because it was near the airport

Cons:

The parking spaced are very very tight, like every spot is a compact car sized spot. The room had a terrible moldy musky smell, despite being on the 9th floor. We recently stayed in a property that was flooded in recent hurricanes and there was zero trace of must or mold in the rooms. There were multiple parties going all night. We called the front desk starting around 1 am complaining of a large party slamming doors and shouting down the halls. We called again around 2 am and we were told security was coming up. We eventually left the hotel around 3:30 am as we were not getting any rest at the hotel and proceeded to the airport. The party was still slamming doors and shouting down the halls at 3:30 am when we left.

Pros:

The bed and the pillows were comfortable

Cons:

The location. It was difficult to navigate the roads to the front lobby.
My room had a smell when I arrived.
The attached restaurant hours were not convenient.
Even though I'm a IHG member, because I booked third party I wasn't allowed even a bottle of water for my stay.
The staff was not very cordial.
Not a good value for my money.
