Pros: Let us check in a little early Bathroom/shower was nice Great gym/spa Nice bar/restaurant Interesting artwork on the property Cons: “Luxury” room far from luxurious Tile floor in room was FILTHY. Beds hard, sheets scratchy TV remote didn’t work properly Steam room in gym not functioning No parking included Elevators dirty, key card to get to floor not functioning properly in one elevator I only stayed for one night, and it was OK. I was expecting more from the room based on the description. The main part of the room felt old and dated. The tile floor part of the room turned my socks black. It was filthy. It seemed like they never mopped the floor. Made me weary of how clean they keep the rest of the room. The beds were hard and the sheets weren’t nice. The bathroom was almost as big as the main part of the room. Bathroom/shower seemed updated and was really nice. I was very happy with the gym. The steam room was not functional, but the sauna was great and the spa facilities looked nice (I did not use the spa). There was no secure place to put your belongings at the gym, though. Just lockers that don’t lock. The museum was really interesting. There’s a lot of cool stuff to see on the property. I appreciate them letting me check in an hour early. I don’t think I’d stay here again, though.

Good location and overall good experience.

Not in a safe area, not parking, small room
