Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort

The room was clean but a little awkward in the fact that it seemed only half of the room had been updated. The bathroom was amazing clean, beautiful, and recently updated but the rest of the room needed some help. The closets and cabinets were broken and damaged. I was put off by having to get out of bed and walk to the wall to turn off my bedside lamp. I had to search to find the in room microwave and coffee maker, then had no where to put them to use them. I wasn't too happy that I had to pay $25/day in order to park in the garage owned by the hotel. It was nice that we were able to walk to the theatre and a couple of restaurants, but there isn't much beyond that to visit close by, we still had to drive to most places. I was mostly just disappointed by the fact it was a little on the pricier side but didn't deliver. They didn't offer breakfast and cafe in the lobby only offered minimal options for breakfast that I felt were over priced. I paid $5 for a small iced coffee, and $20 for a simple hot sandwich.

This is a partying spot, plain and simple. The hotel lobby was taken over by a high-volume DJ dance party on Saturday night that lasted into the wee hours with no regard for the comfort of guests. The resort fee is ridiculous and adds no value. I was shocked that this was a Hyatt property and will not stay here again.
