I’ve stayed here 4-5 times over the years. The staff remains excellent, but the lobby, hallways and rooms could use a refresh.
Black carpet in hallways has bleach spots. Sheer white curtains in room aren’t so white anymore - stained and snagged. Some of gold drapes were falling off tracks. Fabric worn off the corner of the bedframe - I cut my leg on exposed wooden frame. White furniture is scraped and stained. Offwhite floor tiles have bleach spots. Too much clutter on the furniture in the room - cocktail shaker, ice bucket, mini bar, signage. Sensor caused closet to light to flicker on and off all night. Someone did come to address all the problems within a short time, but still…
We received a complimentary “upgrade” to a king suite, but it was actually smaller than the wonderful king. The “suite” is not really a suite but rather a wonderful king with a column splitting the room into separate spaces. The column actually takes space away from the room.
Hotel has free hot water in the lobby, but when I went to get hot water from the lobby at 3:30am, there was none. I asked at the front desk and was told they could bring some to my room. A few minutes later, someone showed up with a carafe of hot water, tea bags, and sugar - AND a room service charge for me to sign! I was expecting a free cup on hot water - not room service.
Not possible to reserve room for 2 with breakfast for 2. Hotel only has option to include 1 breakfast at time of reservation.
