PROs: Great location. Breakfast is a typical Embassy Suites buffet... very good, Complementary Happy hour is nice, Room layout is good, Shower had great water pressure, A/C blew like a hurricane. CONs: A little run down and in disrepair. Our shower rod was falling off the wall. The carpet looked like it was the original (1840). Not a great value... I paid $411/night (all in) and you've expect a lot more for that price.

This property is in desperate need of updating/renovating. There was construction being performed on the outside of the building and we were not told about it prior to booking. Just beware the hotel is extremely old and has not been updated. The bathrooms have cracked and dirty grout, peeling paint on doors, dirty/stained carpet and creaky floors that had to have bothered our neighbors below us. The staff offered to move us to another room, but the only difference was it had taller ceilings. It was nice of them to try and make it better. There are plenty of great hotels to choose from downtown. I would steer clear of this one until it has undergone a renovation.

Good location and staff was great. Very friendly! I thought the hotel itself needs refreshing. Felt drab and musty. Wall paper in our bath was coming off the wall, rusty drip lines in shower , no window in the room which is a little claustrophobic and at least in my home state a fire hazard. Room was a comfortable temperature but I had to sleep on the couch the last night as the mattress was too soft for my back.

Getting more run down every year

Slow check in because room not ready. Hotel under construction, resulting in a complete lack of the outdoor patio space, which is one of the reasons we selected this hotel. The rooms have also gotten very rundown even beyond what they were and past years. The couch was broken, wallpaper peeling off of walls, rusted chrome fixtures, uncomfortable beds and pillows, and stains on the furniture. Badly in need of upgrade.

So first thing you need to know is that this building is old. My main issue is the doors to each room. They slam! And loud! Even if you just let it go behind you. Secondly, if anyone is in any room above you, you can hear them. Walking, talking, in the bathroom etc. As other reviews state the rooms need updates. Especially the carpet. The third thing, make sure you bring your own pillow! The pillows they have here, suck. The free drink happy hour and snacks are great! The staff was great, friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable.

My wife and I paid over $400 per night, with valet parking and taxes, to stay at the Embassy Suites on Meeting Street. The location is fine and the staff was very friendly and helpful. But the facility is badly in need of a major refresh. The room was big but dirty and dingy and very tired. The common areas were no better. Breakfast was better than expected but that was really the only pleasant surprise. If the cost had been $100 or $120 we could have overlooked some of the very Rough edges at this property. As it is I would recommend paying a little more to stay in one of the actually nice hotels in town.
