Wallpaper was peeling off the walls, toilet was unstable and shook every time you sat on it. Seemed very old and outdated compared to a room we stayed in a few months ago.

How it should be done
This hotel is how an older building should be modified for a hotel . I have stayed at other hotels downtown in several cities and normally extremely small rooms and high prices and outdated amenities. This hotel was perfect blend of our work charm and modem day peeks blended into one. Oversized room in our corner suite and nice size jetted tub in a 1950s style marbled tile finished around the double vanity and tub it self. Very comfortable bed and bedding . And HVAC was easily controlled and easily handing the bigger rooms

AC was very loud and squealed in the room. The toilet leaked water all over the bathroom. I told the front desk about the leak before we left for our event, we got back and there had clearly been someone in our room since the soaked toilet water towels were moved but the toilet still leaked. We were also told there was 24/7 valet at check-in but when we got back to the hotel between 10-11p we were told there was no valet and had to park down the block.

When I arrived I was told there was $100 a night incidental ($300 deposit on arrival) theres nothing on the website and/or there app. $50/$100 I get but that was just an unknown inconvenience for a weekend trip. The hotel was nice and clean in a good spot for dinning and fountain square events.

For the price I have expected a much nicer well maintained hotel. The bathroom door was broken in our room, the toilet wouldn’t flush properly. There were drug addicts passed out right outside the door every time we left the building. We travel often and this has been one of the worst stays, for the amount paid.

I travel for work around the world and this by far has to be the most disgusting hotel you’ll ever stay in. If you book this hotel be prepared to feel itchiness in the sheets, hallways that smell like stale cigarettes and be prepared for a dirty tub, a non working phone and arguably the most abrasive staff. The middle of the hotel is basically an echo chamber where if someone is sitting on a balcony you’ll be up all night. The street the hotel is on makes it feel incredibly unsafe. Down the street you will find a dollar mart with drug addicts and homeless people begging for money. I originally booked the hotel for a conference for 4 days and cut my conference short to fly home. Needless to say. The best thing to do is leave.
