Room was very clean. They accidently overcharged are card but immediately reimbursed it and gave us breakfast/drink vouchers to compensate. The only complaint i may have is that the rooms look fancier in the pictures then they actually were.

Nice Staff, even after hours. Room was clean, but had dead bugs inside door, bathtub, and toilet. I suppose better than live bugs, but still unsightly. Would have switched, but it was a late checkin, and just cleaned up myself.

After reserving a king suite and arriving at the hotel, the desk staff informed us that the suite was not available and that we would receive a “slight downgrade”. There was nothing slight about said downgrade. The room that we were given was in a different building and was very small with bare minimum amenities. Several lights did not function, the toilet paper holder was falling off the wall, cobwebs hung from the lights in the hallway, and everything in the room itself was dingy. Not impressed whatsoever, especially since Tapestry Collection hotels are usually quite nice. I cannot recommend this hotel if you aren’t prepared to gamble with what room they will decide to give you despite your reservation.
