The trespassers following my husband into the hotel and to the elevator to beg when we didn’t have anything. The amount of renovations and the mess in the lobby. The only positive is the fact that it’s close to MVP Arena and it was convenient to reach after our show was done.

This place was a crap show.

The bed was not very comfortable. The hotel is renovating and the lobby was dirty and there was no drinks and very little snack choices available. I was misunformed about breakfast time and almost everything was cleaned up by my arrival at 905 am. Another couple who said they got there at 850am and most everything was gone. Only waffles and juice were left. When i asked front desk staff about it they were rude and disrespectful to me. I will not be staying here again. My last stay was iffy but this one was horrible. You have to walk 2 blocks or more to park your car and pay to park in a public garage. The hotel has no parking available. I had reservations for 2 rooms and she only checked me into 1 until i asked despite me saying there were 2 when i arrived booked at the same time and she daid she saw that. Happened the first time i was there too.

The hotel was under construction and we were not made aware, our room had the smallest window and I am claustrophobic. They switched my room and still put me in the same kind of room. Very disappointed, will never go to this hotel again.
