The hotel was nice room was good but the lobby on 5th floor was a little weird. The valet employees were blah and rude. Didn't help with bags. Didn't explain anything upon check in. Text service to call car was disabled. When calling valet to retrieve car they were not friendly at all and still I tipped them. Loved that their was a Starbucks nearby but other than that a okay hotel. Oh rooms were hot Ac was okay but it was on all night. A little noisy.

Disappointed
Valet was a mess when we arrived we were asked to stay in the back behind cars that needed to be moved but we saw other cars cutting to front. very unorganized. Our room temp was warm when we first arrived we put the air down but the room did not cool. I asked the front desk to have someone check it. We left for about 3-1/2hrs when we returned the room was even hotter. This was around midnight. I called the front desk twice no answer so we had to go to the lobby to get ask for some assistance. We were moved to another floor with a cooler room. On Saturday afternoon we went to the restaurant and it was a while before we go a server to give us drinks . Overall I was very disappointed in my stay.

Great location but parking can become a headache in the garage for the price but overall ok. Getting around hotel is challenging at first since there’s no location to stop in front of hotel. I have to take elevators and it’s complicated. Beware before booking here, rooms are nice but it’s in the middle of the medial district around 3 hospitals
