The room wasn’t as clean as I was expecting. There was hair in the bathtub and some trash still in the room. It took 2.5 hours to get linens for the pullout couch. Just not what I would expect for the price of the room. The location was very convenient but I would not stay again.

We had very much trouble entering and leaving the parking garage and I had to ask for charges to be removed and we were charged for 3 days and our stay was only 2 days. One of the faucets had a leaky seal and water was all over the vanity. The front desk support was a little slow and inconvenient. And as of the this morning, I have a double charge pending on my credit card. "paid through Expedia" and cannot get through to anyone at the front desk of the hotel to resolve the issue. Luxury hotel, I would think means top quality customer service?

I found decent rates on expedia but there was no mention of hidden fees. I was charged and paid around 620 for 2 nights at a sub par hotel. When i went to check out i noticed around 400 more additional fees. In the end I paid over 1,000 for a well below average hotel.

Booked hotel for one night stay for my birthday. Specifically picked this hotel for the balcony and the amenities listed on this site. No chairs or table on balcony. No bathrobes or slippers. Made 2 calls asking for chairs and table for balcony and was told they would bring them and never showed up. Also prepaid for valet parking at $39 and when arriving to hotel, it was only $32. Also, resort fee is listed as $8 and change due at resort and it $10 and change. Hotel said there was nothing they could do about the parking charge. It would have to be handled with hotels.com. Then noticed they have charged me for parking again. Calling the hotel tomorrow. I paid $300+ for this and used my $74 hotels.com credit for this mediocre hotel expedience.

Though this property was nice, we encountered a couple issues during our stay that would likely keep us from choosing them again. Upon arrival there was a waiting room full of people waiting for their rooms (this was at 9pm), that had been waiting since 4pm. When we checked in we were simply informed "I'm out of the room you booked, all I have are kings." We had booked a double queen room, as it was my coworker and I on a business retreat- we preferred not to share a bed. Since there was no other option, we made it work. The room was clean and nice with a beautiful view of the plaza. The next day though we tried calling down to figure out where the fitness center was and couldn't get anyone to answer; in fact, any time we tried the phones no one answered any line we tried all weekend long. We utilized the Parisi Coffee shop for breakfast and it was delicious, and then Bar for to go food for dinner. The lobby downstairs was perfect to sit and relax in when we needed a break from working. We were offered a $50 credit for the inconvenience of not having our room, but this was not reflected at check out and will have to be refunded, but it was taken care of eventually. Overall, if it was the only option, we would stay here again, but it won't be our first choice. The headache and hassle just wasn't worth it and there was very little offered for the inconvenience. A major shout out to Alex in valet though. He was absolutely terrific; so kind, helpful & professional!

We heard great things about this property from friends but were disappointed in the cleanliness l. We had dry vomit on the floor and on both bedspreads. They were very behind on having rooms ready as well and we almost had to cancel our stay. One of the elevators didn’t work either so it took a very long time to get one that wasn’t full and we were on the 9th floor. I don’t know how anyone below us would be able to get an elevator as we had to stop in every floor and say we were full. We will not be back.

Upon check in i asked for a champagne stand & to glasses as this was very special night. Well they were never delivered nor was i contacted as to the unavailableity. The food at the concierge lounge, jalapeño toated ravioli were hard & unediable & warm at best. The following morning the "hot" was no where to even being warm. The pool area had no clean towels available. I was so unimpressed by my stay here!
