The room was very nice. The only issue we had was that we were unable to connect to the Wifi. We had just gotten married earlier in the day and my new bride wanted to post all the pics at the end of the day. Nothing we did could get us connected. I travel for business so for me I look to connect the minute I hit the room. It was disappointing to be sure.

I was racially profiled , parking was horrible, crowded , small room even king size bed. Was not a good 4 star hotel could be a luxury 3star if best. Cars took long to get . My wife and I found a lipgloss that wasn’t hers on my keys when valet brought my rolls Royce around. Just not a good spot for us. Spots on walls. Literally stayed for an hour and a half after check in and left and didn’t go back into the room Asked for a refund and they denied refund , so yeah just horrible experience.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I made a reservation through Expedia to this hotel however, I must report that this hotel requires significant renovations. The breakfast options were limited to a banana and oatmeal, and the restaurant/bar offered a very restricted selection of beverages. The rooms were exceedingly small, and upon arrival, I found the towels to be stained with blood, necessitating a request for new ones. The check-out time was unusually early at 11pm, whereas standard check-out times are typically at noon. The check-in time was at 4am, whereas most hotels permit check-in at 3pm The gym was not accessible 24/7 as advertised, and the heated pool that was supposedly available was not open at all. Additionally, the lighting was insufficient, the electrical outlets were non-functional, and the Wi-Fi connection was entirely unavailable and gave me error messages I am also not sure why they inform you that the deposit is refunded upon check out but hasn't been issued to my bank account it's been a week I also would like to know why the hotel doesn't have a direct line and reservations has to try to get answers they gave me so many issues I don't know if I would come back unless improvements are made
