The best thing of this hotel was the young lady receptionist. She was helpful and kind. The hotel didn’t feel clean, and my bedding was stained when I got there. Also, getting an Uber, directed to this hotel was impossible. That was very inconvenient.

Despite the transition from companies/ownership, staff were pleasant, cordial & accommodating. All staff encountered fully explained the misunderstanding that was not personally their faults whatsoever. Property was nice, parking, although a bit pricey, was simple to handle & convenient. Rooms were nice, not 5 star but worthy of 3.5 star property.

We booked a Sheraton property, but we arrived and were told that they are no longer a Sheraton property, but a BW Premier property named The Dextro. The "soundproofed" room was extremely loud, modern yet excessively worn. Our booking was supposed to include breakfast and parking. However, parking was valet-only at $50 a day. The Continental breakfast was charged at $15/per person. Not happy with this booking whatsoever.

Could’ve Been Worse, I guess.

OK stay. Would not stay here again. The description says that parking is available, but what they neglect to tell you until after you get there and check in is that the only parking they offer is valet parking at $50/night so I ended up paying as there wasn’t any free parking available by the time I got there. They also won’t tell you this until you ask, but there’s free street parking on 2nd Ave/Cedar that’s almost always full no matter what time of the day it is. I’m extremely upset about this and wish I could get that $50 back. Pretty inconvenient. Bums on the sidewalks. Can’t speak for all the rooms but mine had a very dirty towel wedged in between the wall and heater/AC unit that room service never noticed. Random stains on the walls that didn’t look pleasant. Toilets aren’t the best at flushing. The best thing I could say is that the staff is friendly.
