Overall this was an ok stay. Check-in was quick and easy. The lobby was clean and inviting. Our room was not ready when we arrived since we were early but were able to leave our bags to tour the city. Disappointment set in when we got the room. When we walked in the room was freezing, the window was open. We immediately closed it got ready for our show. We noticed there was a smell of food in the room. Since we had a show to go to we stopped by the front desk to let them know. They offered to have housekeeping clean the room again. When we got back the room still smelled, a combination of smoke, food and paint(they are renovating), no wonder the window was left open. Another issue was that we needed additions towels. Called to have some delivered. We never received the towels.
