Do not stay at all! Not worth it- disgusting

Absolutely terrible. If you can avoid this place, that would be best. The hotel is under construction which was not disclosed. To make matters worse, the staff, including management, were some of the rudest and difficult people ever. They do not let anyone sit in the lobby at all. We were instructed that you must buy something to sit in the LOBBY and then they claimed management didn’t want “rowdiness” in the lobby! We are 40-50 year old adults!!! They would not let us sit in the breakfast area which was just dirty folding tables when we brought some takeout into the hotel. Every time we asked a question, the answer was always no. We even called corporate Hyatt to make a complaint. The hotel is disorganized, the parking lot of full of debris and dumpsters. Overall one of the most disgusting and unaccommodating hotels ever. Do not stay here at all. Not worth your money, your time, or your sanity.

2 issues. Most important, we arrived on time, actually about 10 minutes early as we had a wedding to go to at 3:45 pm. We were told our room was not ready and it would take a few more minutes. It took over a half hour to be ready, so we were late getting to the affair, missing the entire ceremony. Less important was that the hotel lobby was under renovation so you had to be extra careful not to touch the walls due to wet white paint.
