Review of Hotel Solamar, a Kimpton Hotel

So I m currently staying here for a few nights and I felt like I had to write this review right away. If anything changes I will update the review but I doubt it. My night one in this suite is terrible. Other than the front staff being nice I think that is the only pro. To start with the cons, I booked a suite in this hotel because I am celebrating a special occasion and had some high expectations. The room is really disappointing. The room looks outdated and very old. The furniture looks like it was taken out of an old movie. Some of the stuff was already falling apart! The televisions are the worst!!! They only have like 50 channels and the TV is constantly freezing as your scrolling through the channels. I don t know cable services they are using but it feels cheap, the channels don t even tell you the description so your pretty much flipping through channels guessing. Almost all the outlets in this room do not work!!! I have like 10% battery as I m writing this review right now. The walls are very thin and you can hear everything going on in the hallways. We are not morning people so I put my do not disturb sign and someone was knocking at my door for like 5min straight so far this feels like a disaster and I m regretting this stay. I would not recommend this place for anybody.

*Oh and btw they say that their $49 a night valet is competitive but I found Overnight parking down the street for $20 a night so I don t think it s very competitive.
