My stay was great. The staff were very professional. The rooms were clean. The only issue I had was I made reservations for a king bed room and got a double queen room. Overall it was a great stay and I would recommend this hotel.

AC Hotel gives an upscale luxurious feel. The lobby is beautifully decorated with modern fixtures and furniture. The bar area is always so neat and inviting. The staff is always pleasant. The rooms are spacious and clean. The only thing missing from this hotel is a pool.

Stayed one night and the hotel was clean and the staff was very nice. The water pressure was nonexistent and the beds were pretty hard, but the room was clean and spacious. We prefer a colder room and the thermostat was locked at 65, though the temp never actually reached 65.
