      Presentation and scent of the property was pleasing. I was very disappointed because the amenities were not available due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This information should have been available upon booking.

        Among arriving to the hotel I was not informed it was a certain time to check in and I was charged extra to check in “early” check in time was 4pm that’s ridiculous! Took the A/C a long period of time to cool down the room. The pool was closed due to covid-19 is understandable but the room service being closed because of covid-19 was ridiculous and was told to doordash food. Last but not least the side door when getting out the elevator was closed due to covid-19 which is really ridiculous had to walk in the rain around the building to the front door to check in and leave to get on elevator to parking garage. This has to be by far the worst experience at hotel Derek and I use to love it here.. sad.
