Kim

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
So much mold in the room. The window frames were covered. The bathroom had moldy grout, nothing Tilex wouldn’t fix, but in a four star hotel? There was a round, brown conspicuous spot on the carpet that looked a lot like a dog had relieved itself there, and no formal carpet cleaning was done after. The WiFi was painfully slow and the TV color scale was way off. The hotel’s decor is very nice upon entry but the room itself gave me the ick and I would not stay again or recommend.

I would choose again when in downtown Mobile

Super friendly staff from front desk, to service in The Living Room, to valet. Walking distance to a lot of shops, restaurants and venues. I was a single female traveler and was okay walking around. Beautiful historical buildings and park close. Room was nice and comfortable Bed was fantastic. Bathroom is a tad small but clean and good for 1 person. Enjoyed an hour at The Living Room winding down. She didn't get my order correct (specify Oysters Louis) for dinner in my room but it was still good. Make sure to actually request your upgrades - they weren't offered

I showed up for check in late afternoon, after the 4pm check in time and she gave me the keys to my room. I open the door and the bed has been striped. No sheets no pillow cases and needed to still be cleaned so I had to lug all my luggage back downstairs to get another room. I was there for an event and it did delay me for the evening.
