Beautiful surroundings as you enter….but hallway floors needed a good vacuuming…our entree door to room was full of hand and fingerprints, just looked UNwiped or cleaned…our room, the counters and furniture I could tell had not been wiped down or you could see where they had wiped to make more undone more obvious…pull top of bed away from wall and super yuck with inches of dirty dust on platform, behind bed and the floor! It would take 10 minutes to spray down and wipe every single thing in rooms and would make for a nicer stay? The balcony was very dirty but it’s February so assuming they do nothing with outside or tracks in sliding doors during “winter” months? I would stay again but honestly bring a few rags and do a quick wipe down 1st thing…. Front desk were friendly and love the location!! :)

Room was spotless. Amenities were plenty. Staff was friendly. Mulanga at the front desk and Anna overnight were very helpful finding local places to visit and answering any questions. Operation desk Susan was helpful during breakfast. Marigold from housekeeping went above and beyond when we left a charger and they had it at the desk for us. The view and balcony were amazing.

We stayed at the AC for a concert at heritage bank. The room was clean and the hotel was nice. Great walking distance from a bunch of restaurants, bars, and heritage bank even though it was February. My only complaint was lack of trash bins. There was only one trash bin in the bathroom and no trash bins in the halls or near the elevators. I hated feeling like we left a mess for the hotel staff but we tried our best to tidy up.

We spent three nights here and had a great experience overall. The hotel itself is very nice, and the location is an absolute A+. Everything we wanted to do was within easy reach. The front desk and bar staff were amazing, friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. The valet team also did a great job, especially with their QR code retrieval system, which made getting the car quick and seamless. My only real complaint would be that the HVAC system in the room was quite loud. That said, it worked very well and kept the room temperature comfortable, so it was more of a noise issue than a functionality one. One potential drawback for some guests is that music from nearby bars can be fairly loud, especially late on weekend nights. It didn’t bother us, but I could see how it might be a distraction for light sleepers. Overall, a very enjoyable stay, and I would definitely consider staying here again.
