Horrible experience.

This trip was horrible. The place was in complete shambles. Everytime I got an uber they were like "whats going on" or would cancel on me because the place was totally under construction. I was supposed to share the room with a friend but when I sent them the video they stayed elsewhere because it was in such bad shape so I got stuck with the whole bill which was astronomical for what this was. Plus it was extremely loud one night so I got absolutely no sleep. Please email me as they hotel hasn't gotten back to me. I have videos. This is unacceptable. See some of the pictures.

Hotel is under construction and should not be still hosting guests. Elevator is deconstructed with exposed wires. Front door was locked when we arrived, after 10 minutes of searching we eventually found a side door to enter but had to walk over wood, cardboard, and cones to access the side door. After informing the employees about the locked door, we were yet again locked outside for 10 minutes. The employees seemed to not care. I asked to confirm there were employees at the front desk 24/7, they said yes. Yet when I went to check out in the morning there were no employees anywhere - so I just left.

Don't go until it's finished

This is the fourth time we're staying at this location. The first three times were exceptional. This time we should've been notified that the entire hotel was under construction and that there would be people drilling and banging the entire day. we specifically chose that location because of the abundant breakfast buffet and the cleanliness of the dining area which this time was nonexistent there was no lobby nowhere to sit even in the room to have breakfast since they were three of us very disappointed we've been members for over 20 years and never had an experience like this very unsettling

Our room was on one of the renovated floors and was excellent in every respect. We recognized that the similar renovations were going on on other floors but we were willing to pardon the dust as we entered the facility and in the elevators. We were aware that one day all will be finished to make for a much nicer hotel.

Renovations

The overall experience was great. The rooms were clean and accommodating. We were very disappointed however, when we arrived to find the lobby under renovation. We were told there was no sit down breakfast due to the renovation. This was not noted when I booked the room. That was one of the main reasons we selected this hotel for our trip. I feel that there should have been a mention about the renovations on the website.

False advertisement

We didn’t even stay. After being charged over $400 for one night we had a hard time navigating the parking lot due to heavy equipment. Then I walked into the lobby and it’s a literal construction zone. I don’t think this should be open to the public. This information was not conveyed to me.

When booking the room we were not alerted to the ongoing construction. The lobby was totally demoed and filthy. The elevators were in the same state - wires hanging from the ceiling. While the room was clean construction brave before 9 am and was quite disruptive. Further the water was shut off to our room without any notice whatsoever. When we called the front desk they said they were unaware of this issue but after reading other reviews this is a normal occurrence. The straw that broke the camels back was when the construction crew starting whistling and cat calling at my 16 year old daughter!!! Completely unacceptable.
