The room was nice and I loved the blackout windows. The staff is friendly. The vertex bar which advertised itself as open until midnight was closing at 10 so that was a disappointment. I purchased the $40 breakfast option and receive two $15 Starbucks gift cards so ended up losing money on that deal

This hotel is overall beautiful, but it is in need of some significant improvements. Torn/frayed carpets, stained and torn wallpaper, tubs that won't hold water, incredibly noisy heaters, paper-thin walls, and workers doing construction projects during the late afternoon while on speakerphone made this a noisy trip. Finally turned the tv on to drown out the noise....We used to love staying here but will likely find a differnt option moving forward.

There was no window in our room. The fan in the bathroom was so loud. Though the bathroom was nicely updated, there was no counter space in the bathroom. There was only one small mirror in the bathroom not a full length mirror to check your clothing.
