The room overall was very nice. Thermostat had been removed from the wall, no bags for used laundry, no bibles, phonebooks, notepads in the room. Probably biggest inconvenience was the glaring lack of USB ports ANYWHERE, including lobby common areas. I brought a cord with me, but not a charger. I assumed the premium room price I paid would have provided that simple courtesy. Also, no complimentary breakfast. That was an additional $40 (with tip) that was above and beyond the hotel rate.

When we got to our room and were putting things away in the bathroom, the towels just didn’t seem fresh and when I turned around, there were two dry, dirty washcloths hanging over the shower rod/curtain. It immediately made me feel that the room wasn’t cleaned well.

This hotel was outstanding, not for its clean rooms and amenities (which were excellent in every respect) but for its friendly and helpful staff AND its complementary shuttle service. We were attending a wedding reception at the Seven Hills Ballroom and thanks to the shuttle service, did not have to worry, either about finding a taxi or driving, shall we say, slightly impaired.
