I'm a platinum member and they didn't want to honor the late check out without a fee. They made me show them where it says I don't have to pay a fee. So they said it's okay, let's waive that rate this time. So I have to proved them. I shouldn't have to do this.

The heater wasn't working throughout the hotel, so they gave us the space heater, which felt ridiculous for such a "nice" hotel. The beds were extremely soft, no back support, had to sleep on the couch. The door to the bathroom wouldn't open all the way without scratching against the floor, which made noise every time someone went at night. In general, the hotel was fine but not at all what I was expecting given the strong reviews. The location was about the only thing I enjoyed.

Perfect location. Bed was comfy and bathroom and shower was spacious. Hotel is getting worn - sofa groans, noisy from elevators and thin walls, furnishings getting dated. Kitchen very sparsely equipped (one fork one spoon…). Staff was excellent and checkin and out was smooth.

Staff were courteous and efficient. Highlights for me were the light and lovely space of a corner room with luscious linens on a king bed, and really hot water and fluffy towels in the bathroom. The hotel has a long history of supporting musicians and artists, which is also nice to see.

Very clean room, lots of dishes in the kitchen. The street noise was a lot at night. Not sure if there was a noisemaker but that would have helped. Also, a fan or some way to cool the room down. Staff was super friendly and helpful all the way!
