I booked and PAID for (Jan 28, 2025) a Club Room, 1 King Bed with Sofa bed, Business Lounge Access (High Floor). When I arrived (Feb 13, 2025) I was told the room was given to another customer and that they would book us into a "deluxe" room. Unfortunately, THAT room had no Sofa bed. My daughter went back down to the front desk and asked for a different room. She was told they had nothing and a roll away bed would be sent ASAP. It never showed. She called twice and was told that the bed was coming. Nothing showed. Someone had to SLEEP ON THE FLOOR Thursday night! The front desk manager's name is Nikki. She was less than helpful. I expect a full refund for my reservation. I intend to contact the Sheraton as soon as I launch this review. If I can't get satisfaction, I will contact Expedia directly next. If that is unsuccessful, I will contact my credit card company and file a formal complaint. I am an extremely unhappy customer. The Sheraton Hotel is to blame. Expedia needs to force them to refund my reservation ($306.21) in full.

It was a nice hotel, friendly checkin and clean but didn’t seem ready for the Super Bowl parade crowd. We never got extra blankets which we asked for twice. Understaffed in restaurant. And only cold water available for shower.

Everything was good and all the staff I personally dealt with were courteous and helpful. The issue we felt was lack of proper staffing (valet, check in, bar/restaurant during peak hours for such a large event (dance competition and convention). My travel mates ordered food to go from the bar on Friday evening (2 salads). It took about 45 minutes to receive the boxes-only to get up to the room to discover they had not been given any utensils. When one of them started to go back down to get the forks, the other diner (luckily) noticed that neither of them had been given any salad dressing either. When she approached the waitress that had helped them, she pointed out that they didn’t get their utensils or salad dressing. The waitress said “I didn’t pack the order……..“ I’m sure it was a long shift for her, but a simple, “Oh! I’m sorry!” goes a long way in these situations.
