My parents and I stayed here for a week. We paid for a superior room and got a regular room. There were 3 of us in the room yet only enough drinking glasses, coffee for 2 people. The beds were not made properly, the room was dirty, the bathroom was dirty with previous guests hair on the walls! My Mom's watch was stolen the first night there and when we checked out we could not get a report to make an insurance claim. We paid over $2,000 for a week's stay, yet when the bill arrived under our door the last morning of our stay it showed $1,000 LESS. When we asked about it at the desk upon checkout, we were told it was a "system error". Hello!! PEOPLE input that information. When we demanded a copy of the bill back and a report of the stolen property - I was threatened with them calling security because of my "behavior"! We had to call each and every night for clean glasses, ice, more coffee and creamer (Dad even left notes asking for more coffee and creamer EACH MORNING). The restaurant is EXTREMELY OVERPRICED for what you don't get! The honor bar is a joke and way overpriced as well. As for "First 30 minutes free" for internet access in the business center - not true either. Dad and I spent a total of 16 minutes online doing our web check-in for our flights and were charged for that as well. One day we had a rental car. There's no place to park... they park it for you. We arrived back to the hotel at 9pm and returned the car the next day to the rental car office at 8am .... we were charged $80 for those few short hours!!! Being a guest of the hotel why isn't parking complimentary??? The staff speaks very bad English - very difficult to understand them. If you don't tip well - you can forget that you even exist. CONCEIRGE : is none existent. When you call the phone rings and rings and rings and rings. Then you get the front desk who put you on hold for 5 minutes. so I hung up and called back numerous times before they (the front desk AGAIN) answered and takes my call!!

We just got back from a spring break getaway. This is a very nice hotel and close to a lot of site seeing areas. It is about three blocks from the metro, a short walk, but you get hit up a lot by panhandlers. The hotel is very nice and the staff...

Mediocre
You get what you pay for - the first room I had was right outside a street light, with no darkening curtains. The second overlooked the buidling HVAC system and an alley. Neither room had amenities listed on the hotel's website - I didn't even get...
