A bit too over priced for the condition of the place Homeless hanging out at the river walk area, we saw what we were pretty sure it was human feces The elevator a cardboard flooring over it for reasons unknown The hotel bar closed early and did not tell anyone so my friend and I sat there for 15 minutes before she went downstairs and found out that they have closed the bar early They locked the doors from the Riverwalk to the patio before 10 PM so you have to go down into the very lower level to go out called the tunnel, was very musty smelled like mold The patio outside is not what you see in the pictures either there’s just a couple of brass tables out there not really a place you wanna just sit and hang out And I’m not sure if there is mildew or mold or something in the rooms but after we left my friend and I were feeling like we had a very bad allergic reaction or just sick as soon as we spent a couple of hours away from the property, we started feeling better

This was one of the easiest check ins i have ever had. The front clerk Jay was EXCELLENT! His attitude, personality and professionalism was above and beyond! He did things fast and easy amd also gave us a room upgrade(river view) after the issues i had with a previous hotel reservation at a different location. He was great! After that, Ehren and Jesse from valet parking were also very helpful providing dining, route, sight seeing suggestions. You do have to pay for parking, but it was a one time fee($36) that covered our stay for the weekend. Most other hotels have a nightly fee. This hotel is within walking distance of all restaurants shops and night life. Room was a little small but couldnt complain since it was a river view. I was looking fwd to the pool but turns out this hotel DOES NOT have a pool. Something about renovations with an indefinite opening date. The only complimentary thing they offer is the coffee inside your room. Everything else you must pay for. Overall great experience and will probably stay again.

The hotel is average but we were disappointed that the pool was closed. We were told that it's been closed for 6 months as of 8/25. This shows they are in no hurry to fix it. ALSO , EXPEDIA is quoting the incorrect rate. I was informed, at the front desk, that this has been a problem with EXPEDIA because they aren't adding a surcharge that the hotel charges. The only recourse that EXPEDIA offered me was a credit towards a future booking.
