Needs a Complete Overhaul

This hotel is in desperate need of a complete overhaul (beyond the newer furniture) - I'm surprised it still meets Radisson's standards. We were there with a group and all of the rooms had similar issues. Metal room doors won't close unless you slam them shut (disturbing everyone on your floor); bath tub fixtures and drains are held together by caulk (or no longer even held together, like our drain stopper which we had to remove completely get enough drainage to take a shower; smoke detector wasn't securely fastened to wall and was so old it was nicotine-stained from when smoking was allowed; wi-fi was unusable - it would go in and out every minute or two; most of the front-desk staff was less-than helpful; and neighborhood is sketchy at best. Housekeeping is the only bright spot for this hotel - room was definitely clean.

Nice weekend place

The hotel is under renovation, so there were some workers, ladders, etc., around at times. Our room was comfortable, with a nice refrigerator and microwave. The view from the balcony (15th floor) was AMAZING and we lucked out with Oktoberfest right across the street so that was fun. We walked across the bridge to a football game and not having to deal with parking for that was awesome. We only ate breakfast at the hotel, but it was delicious both days (buffet one day, menu one day)...highly recommend the Belgium waffle with bacon.

Our room was dated, mattress sinks in middle. The bathroom floor was still dirty there was visible hair. The traffic noise was awful. My husband didn’t like the smell he kept saying it smelled. Overall it was a place to sleep close to our venues but for the price it could have been better! When we did interact with staff they were polite.
