The hotel is pretty, but the customer service was poor. The floors in the room were sticky. There was no comforter on the bed or a trash can in the bathroom. People were loitering in the car garage and you could smell marijuana. I didn’t feel safe. The security person was on his phone and not on alert.

I had to remove items from the fridge to store things from restaurants I it. There was no microwave to Reheat. I almost cracked my legs on luggage bell hop props on the way to the elevator. And the elevator was unreliable, it worked on the right hand side not the left. And to add more detail I would scan my room key before trying to select the floor I was going to. But there would be random bellhop furniture out in the walkway and when you’re juggling two kids that could be a real hazard. I’ve never been in a hotel that didn’t keep that stuff on the first floor near the concierge‘s. It was very boutique and pretty though you could take pictures a lot of places. But the ice machine was broken on our floor and I got ate up by mosquitoes and ended up having a bad reaction to the bites and had to beg the late night staff for ice. It was just really convoluted and uncomfortable. This was because the ice machine on the six floor was broken and out of order.Not to mention the night before my sisters wedding the front desk called me for a delivery at 5 AM. It turns out the delivery was not for me but for another room and I missed out on sleep and wasn’t able to get back to bed. I’ve never experienced anything like that but it was very inconvenient.
