This hotel is not worth the money. We were placed in a very loud room with no A/C to start. After a very lengthy back and forth with the front desk who initially refused to accommodate us we finally got a new room. It was so loud with traffic noise absolutely not worth the money. This is not a 5 star hotel keep looking.

I booked a Deluxe Room for one night at the Atheneum. What I received was, without question, the worst hotel room I’ve ever stayed in. The room looked nothing like the photos on the hotel’s website for a Deluxe room. When I called the concierge to report the issue, I was told it was “in the same category” as the Deluxe room. I explained that I would never have booked this room, and was told that not all Deluxe room types are pictured online, an unbelievably poor excuse. To make matters worse, I was informed that the hotel was fully booked and this was the only room available. In other words, they knowingly passed off an inferior room as a Deluxe and hoped I wouldn’t notice or complain. This is not just disappointing, it’s deceptive. If you charge guests for a higher-tier room, you must provide what’s advertised. What I got was nowhere close to a Deluxe experience. If this is what they consider Deluxe, this hotel is a 1-star property, not 5. I’ve attached photos of the room I received. They speak for themselves. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Excellent location very friendlhh un staff and superbly cleaned. The only issue we experienced was the TV wasn’t a smart TV and we couldn’t add our own TV stick to watch our own channels. The hotel’s TV was very restricted to a few English channels
