After booking through Orbitz, I cannot recommend this hotel for many reasons. My biggest concern, in addition to many others, was the possible privacy law invasion. The morning we checked out we were enraged to find out that the hotel had, unbeknownst to us, made photocopies of our driver's licenses and credit card information. When we asked to have the copies back, the front desk clerk refused to give them to us. He claimed it was Orbitz's policy to prove we had stayed there. Orbitz confirmed that it is not their policy, nor is it the policy of any other established hotel we have ever stayed with. After getting Orbitz involved and hours of long distance phone calls, the hotel claims they destroyed the information. We, of course, have no way to prove this actually happened.
In addition to our experience, another guest had fraudulent charges posted on his credit card made by a hotel employee and the management would not get involved. There are some definite breach of security issues at this hotel and guests need to be aware.
It was shocking how dirty the "new" hotel was. There were stains and cigarette burns on the carpets, dirty walls, stairwells that were littered with stains, light fixtures that didn't work, and floors that didn't seem to ever be vacuumed. I had to wipe my feet off before getting into bed each night from the dirty floor that was never cleaned, even before we arrived. The hotel staff was unacceptable. I asked for a hair dryer that was on it's way---it never made it, nor was there a follow-up. Security was not an issue as it seemed in earlier reviews. The doors were secured and locked. The music from down the street starts around midnight and goes on for hours and I would recommend requesting a room away from the parking garage whose alarm goes off several times a day for hours. If you are sensitive to light, bring an eye mask. The trendy window treatments are opaque and even at night, it's daytime, though that may depend on where your room is located.
Overall, the management practices are extremely questionable. The staff doesn't seem to be of the highest quality, and the rooms are trendy and the small space is well utilized but dirty and cheap. Did I mention how the curtain rod kept falling on me when I was taking a shower?
This is my first review and hopefully my last. And I am an avid traveler. Be careful when considering this establishment.
