Overall rating - 0 stars Room: 918 *Shower leaked badly onto the bathroom floor and carpet outside of bathroom while showering. Staff already aware of the issue and still assigned me to this room without any warning. *Multiple bath towels and bed cover with stains. *Air conditioner didn't blow direct cool air. Staff stated "whisper quiet"air and room "will eventually get to the temp selected." Staff gave me a VERY loud fan that I couldn't sleep with because of the noise. My rest was diminished immensely trying to sleep in a lukewarm room. *Safe didn't work and it took the engineer over an hour and a half to arrive and fix it. *Bed was lumpy, overly firm and uncomfortable. *Shower gel bottle was completely empty when I checked in. *Valet staff told me that valet for my vehicle wasn't available when I checked in at 8:15PM. A HUGE reason that I selected this property was the valet service since I have a very nice car. Beyond disappointing. *Hairs from previous guests (and other debris) VERY visible on the carpet when I checked in. *Assigned the wrong floor when I checked in. I directly booked the 9th floor and was initially assigned a 2nd floor room. Fortunately the front desk staff adjusted their error after I made them aware of the mistake. *You can clearly hear the music from the nearby clubs/bars late into the evening...even from my 9th floor room. *No bathroom fans or air fresheners for use after a #2. The ONLY bright spot was Kelsey the bartender (5 stars)
Bathroom floor soaked from leaky shower.
Carpet soaked by leaky shower.
Loud fan provided by staff because the air conditioner didn't blow cool air.
Stained bed spread.

Our stay

Room was nice, had a small sign that called it our room the urban room and that we could move if it became to loud. Unfortunately it was after 11 pm when we heard all the noise (loud cars and a train) so we didn’t get a lot of sleep. The restaurant had high reviews but what we had, burgers and tacos tasted burnt.

Nicely renovated property with friendly staff. Walking distance to concert venues. Comfortable lobby and bar. Excellent food at restaurant. Nice, clean room and bathroom. If you like strong water pressure in the shower, this is the place for you! It was so strong he shower drain couldn’t handle it well, which is my only complaint.

Our bathroom overflowed and we’re moved to another room at midnight. After it happened I checked reviews and it had just happened before to another guest. Given breakfast vouchers for it but serving staff made us feel like we were freeloaders using them. We were given the restaurant menu, once they saw the vouchers they brought out a simple paper menu. We were the only guests eating breakfast, took long to get our food served and didn’t come back for refills on drinks. Parking was a steep $32, the ground parking garage was detailed with arrows where to park. There’s sections for tenants. Guest park further in. We did appreciate the front desk staff who offered to comp the fee. Downtown traffic doesn’t stop, cars are so loud. This hotel is for the business people because meeting rooms are beautiful and many places to sit with incredible chairs.

Unboudng care and friendliness!

After trying to charge my EV at a public station which failed, decided to stay and made reservation. On the way there, i ran completely out of power right in front of The Kent. Ethan, the valet person, saw it happen and helped me push my car to a safe parking space without even knowing I was going to be a guest. Battery, including reserve, was completely drained. He had me go to check in and spent hours making sure I got enough charge to get back in the road safely. This type of dedication to the universality of kindness flowed through every part of the hotel in all if the staff. While certainly not the cheapest, certainly one of the best stays in my 30+ years of personal and professional al travels! Thanks to all the staff and may the peace you spread come back to you all 100 fold!
