My experience with my booking for this property was one of the worst experiences I have ever had traveling. I arrived with my wife and 2 year old daughter at 8pm on 3/7 to check in for my reservation. They told me they were sold out and had transferred me over to an alternate hotel nearby. I was never emailed, called, or texted. I showed up to front desk with all of our bags just to be told we had to go to another hotel. With all of the traffic in this area it took us over an hour to reach the hotel which was 2 blocks away but we had to go around in circles and down one way streets before finally getting there. The room there was small and not the accommodation we were looking for. We left and paid for another hotel 20 minutes away. WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!! Beware if you have a booking here make sure to call them ahead of time or day of to make sure they will honor it and not send you to alternative hotel. Never going back after this.

It's hard to give ratings for these categories. For example, "staff and service" includes desk staff, cleaning staff, chefs, restaurant servers. There are some very good desk staff, but one whose continued presence is mystifying -- (unless he is being paid for playing in his phone and dismissing client concerns). The restaurant serving staff are consistently excellent, and the chefs are generally very good. The cleaning staff generally do an excellent job each day in the rooms. But there doesn't seem to be a policy on periodically checking the hallways for garbage and dirty dishes, as some inconsiderate guests seem to think it's just fine to expose other guests to their mess. The hotel has been increasingly popular, it seems, and it's facilities -- for example, during their free breakfast -- can be strained when the hotel is full.
