Would stay again

There is no actual hotel lounge. Its just a steak house connected to the hotel and it was supposed to be open but it wasnt. There was rarely anyone at the front desk. Breakfast was good. Bed was very comfortable. Ice machine was broken on second floor. Very close to Lakeview Amphitheater. Would stay again

Nothing special, reasonably clean, breakfast in the morning just ok. And they literally triple their rates the week of the state fair so you pay 350 for a room that’s maybe worth 100. Hey.. you asked for my opinion, here it is.

Disappointed lately

The hotel has really declined in maintenance over the last year. I have stayed there about 10 times over the year and im disappointed in the maintenance. The past 2 months the ice machine on the 2nd floor has been broken. The building has a musty smell and our room last night had huge water stains on the ceiling and cracks. Went to the breakfast at 9:15 that was suppose to go to 10:00 and all food gone and everything cleaned up. Really disappointed in the hotel that has a restaurant with raving reviews in it and i have dined it this restaurant and its excellent. The 2 definitely dont jive

Disliked: Amenities
The equipment in the fitness center was in poor condition. The room we were in looked like it had flooded at one point. You could tell by the poor condition of the closet. I tripped over the lip of the front door when we got there. They wanted to charge me $30 for ‘early check in’ then were surprised that I said we’d wait bc I didn’t care about checking in early. That’s just when we got there. I won’t stay here again.
