Room was absolutely disgusting. A huge stain on the couch. It was so dusty I had to wipe everything down with our Lysol wipes. The wash clothes in the room were supposedly clean with makeup stains on them and some form of brown spots on the other.

Great Service

We were booked at a different hotel and when we got there we found out the hotel was in a horrible condition that we had to leave right away. Thankfully Hyatt Place had few available rooms. We were able to book the room and check in within less than 30 minutes. They were nice, welcoming, and made our stay comfortable. We weren't able to park in the garage for one night, and they took off the charge for that day. Thank you for everything!

Cold showers!

There was no hot water in the sink or shower. There was a dirty towel from the previous guest hanging on the back of the bathroom door and there was no bedding for the pull out sofa.

Our room was very dirty. Shower had a thick layer of dirt and there was some mold. The room was dusty and looked like it had not been cleaned for several months. The only positive about the hotel was the young lady that checked us in.

Hotel was clean and fairly quiet considering the downtown location. Given the location however, it would have been nice for breakfast service to start earlier than 6:30. When business travelers have 7 AM meetings, as many of us do, 6:30 AM for a service start does not give us enough time to eat and make it into the office.
