Nice Hotel But BE WARNED
Nice Hotel But BE WARNED
I honestly wanted to write an excellent review for this place. I arrived with such excitement. And I'll even state the good things right away. The Vallet service was very friendly and quick, they even helped me load my luggage onto my cart and wheel it to my room. When I ordered room service, they told me it would be a 30-45 minute wait for my food. It came in 15 minutes AND the food was still hot. You get a selection of proper amenities like a soft bath robe, liqour, anything you may need to treat yourself. Then I went for dinner downstairs. Food was amazing as well. (Side-note, best bacon I've ever had). I got a standard room, and still felt like I was in a suite. The bathroom was very modern and practically new! I've never been in a hotel bathroom that DIDN'T have a flaw and I loved it. The 65" flatscreen you get is so nice to look at. And the color is slightly dimmed so it doesnt hurt your eyes. Plenty of storage throughout the room. The pool was okay. I prefer to swim alone which I was able to do. But the pool did not appear to be heated like they had stated. But that could just be me. Still a nice little area with a city view. Overall, the hotel itself is beautiful. The food is worth it (pricy) but worth it. The staff always smile, and they treat you like royalty!
However...the reason I had to give 4 stars instead of 5, was because of the cleaning staff. Now your experience might be different from mine, but BE WARNED! My breakfast had just came. I had some cash on my nightstand that I tipped the gentleman with, then I started to eat. I left the rest of my cash on the table temporarily until I was done eating. I ordered a big meal, but before I could even enjoy it, I went up to use the restroom. For reasons unnecessary to explain, I wound up breaking my thumb and had to run to the ER. I didnt have time to eat my breakfast, and I had forgotten about the money I had left on my table. When I came back a couple hours later, they had already come by to refresh and restock my room. It was then that I realized my entire breakfast had been thrown out, which I had been saving for later. And on a more serious note, the money was gone. Beyond furious, I went down to complain to the front desk, and thankfully they were able to resolve the issue, which again proves how amazing this hotel and overall staff is. Though I cannot complain too much, I sort of understood why the cleaners took the money. They saw it on the night stand and assumed it was a tip. And I was remmberesed for that plus the entire breakfast that was thrown out. But one small mistake they made cost me all of my enjoyment for the rest of my visit. I wish things could have been different. STILL an excellent hotel! But be mindful of your surroundings at all costs.
