Service was very good. Maintenance staff was very nice. The rooms were very out dated. I feel like we got the misfit rooms. The frig had been turned off. Once turned on it leaked. Bathroom sink wouldnt drain. Air conditioner didnt cool the room. Front tv didnt work. Towel bars were loose. Lots of lightbulbs were out or flickering. Also found a bug. Took it down stairs to management. Every staff member was great!

Our room was the problem. The toilet paper holder was sitting on the bathroom counter (wood piece with the actual toilet paper hardware and screw on the counter) the AC fan was super loud! I could not get it to set to automatic it just kept running we couldn't sleep! So we just shut it down. It was late, we were tired and we weren't going to wait for maintenance! We have stayed in many Embassy's all over the US and this has been my only disappointing experience.

The hotel is very nostalgic to the Embassy suites from the 1980-1990s time period. There could be some touchups done to improve the cleanliness of the hotel but overall the hotel is in a great location.

For the price I paid to stay here- there is no reason I should have had a leaking shower and faucet in the bathroom. There was no toilet paper in the room and only 2 towels. Wouldn’t stay again especially for the price.
