Stay away from this hotel

The sheer shade and blackout drapery control keys are hidden behind the nightstand lamp in black without alert sign on the stand or desk. No reasonable people would notice and in the morning the sunshine goes into the pillow made the sleep miserable. No soap dish, empty shampoo bottle. Very inconsiderate inhuman treatment and services. The front counter was careless and totally disregard the guests’ needs. The valet parking is a joke, no services to speak of and compare the parking across street it becomes a ripoff. A total miserable experience, NO RECOMMENDATION AT ALL.

The hotel was average. Disappointed that the room did not even have a glass for water. There were two plastic wrapped plastic cups in the bathroom. That was it. Not sure the location makes up for the average overpriced room and meh service. The valet parking service attendants were great, but this was a separate entity from the hotel. Next time, will stay at hotel just a few miles that we felt was superior at Forrestal.
