    Not having a driver for your Van on the weekends was not good. Having to request a uber/taxi was a big let down when I'm looking at a van just sitting there. Also I requested to pay cash at the end of my stay and the system was down. If I was able to pay upon my arrival, it would have been very helpful.

    The staff was very helpful upon my arrival. There was some confusion with my room and my son's room because we have the same name.However it was corrected without issue.

    Room furnishings where stained. Breakfast was poor. Hotel didn't feel welcoming, ate evening meal at Hotel opposite. Travelled 15mins to get breakfast. Parking was ok, but expensive on top of large fee tips were expected. Overall vibe of Hotel wasn't great

    Size of room was larger than expected and location was good

    Front desk did not explain where anything was located when I checked in ie pool, gym, restaurant /breakfast hours . I had to go ask multiple times or google. Need More soda options in vending area by front desk. Could offer healthier options. Room safe would not open when I tried to reset it when I checked in, would be good to ensure it is cleared prior to new person checking in.

    Kitchen staff was really great in both restaurants.

    During our stay no hot water for over 24 hours. We were informed in advance of repairs but could not cancel without full penalty. After we asked they offered 30% off one day, which we have not been credited several days later. Where even Holiday Inn Express has free breakfast, breakfast was $17. Parking was $40 per night not including tip.

    Excellent location, very nice staff

    The mandatory valet parking for $40 a day was a problem. We usually park our own car in the garage and get a luggage cart and bring our own luggage into our room. Also, we had our dog with us which made using the valet and the luggage service even more difficult, but there was no option to the valet parking except a pay by the hour lot across the street which was insecure and also very expensive. Once inside the hotel the buss boy who was an elderly gentleman,not a boy, harassed us to death to take the luggage up to our room for us. We were already loaded onto the luggage cart and had absolutely no need of him to just push the cart up to the room and then put his hand out for a tip.. Also, there was no directory to the hotel in our room, no room service menu, nothing. We would have ordered room service for breakfast both mornings we were there, but no menu, so we ended up using Door Dash instead. We also used Door Dash to get our meals. We would have liked to at least be able to consider the room service menu for lunch and dinner, but there was absolutely no info about anything in the room. I asked the front desk about this at exit and they gave me some answer I didn't quite understand about it being on the telephone and also on the TV, but I didn't see anything and I looked everywhere. The lovely king bed should have been comfortable, but I woke up with a horrible back ache and so did my husband. There was a Starbucks counter for breakfast, but my husband stood there for over 10 minutes until someone showed up to take his coffee order. He had to be called from another place in the hotel and he seemed in a hurry the entire time he was there. For the outrageous amount I paid for this room, it really wasn't a good stay. The hotel itself is beautiful. It's a shame that the services weren't as beautiful by any stretch of the imagination. Nothing was free. There wasn't even any free coffee in the morning that we could find.

    The location was incredible. It was across the street from the concert venue for Justin Hayward.
