The property was extremely crowded during our stay and only 3 of the elevators were working so wait times were extremely long. We paid extra for a 2 queen room and they did not have one available. Our first room was dirty and the toilet was not working. I believe the property is due for a refresh. The positives: breakfast was excellent and the staff did their best.

When we got there, there were so many people in this hotel you could not get up and down the elevators for at least a half an hour or more. Valet parking was horrible. I had to wait for a car for at least 1/2 hour and what time they even forgot to bring our car out. Understaffed. Had to call twice for towels and washcloths. I never cleaned up our room until the third day. Said they were sorry, but just didn’t know when they could get somebody there Call the front desk for some not quite emergency, but some quick needed information about the locality of the place they put us on hold and never got back to us. There was no alternatives to using valet because there’s no parking around. The only reason why we stayed there ways to get across the street to the ice hockey rink for ONE game. Don’t waste your time come in with an Uber and stay somewheres else.

Great location and lots of beautiful walking areas outside the hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is in need of a face lift as the room had several broken or damaged items in it including major scratches on the wall and broken lamp shades. Had I not been present for the Florida bar and they not been sold out of rooms I would have asked to switch, especially given the cost of the room and the daily added fees outside of the 3rd party booking charge. Albeit I am not sure regarding the quality of the rooms- there are many hotel options in the same area, all in close walking distance, especially to the convention center.

Paid for bay view with tub. Was told there is no bay view rooms with tubs. Offered us smaller room overlooking street. We stayed with shower. Room was clean and overlooked Convention Center mostly, with partial view of River, not bay. Street below was noisy. We were on. 14th floor. Staff was kind but not sure we were told the truth about no tubs in bay view nexuses clearly that is what my booking said. It was very convenient to Amelie Arena. Met some nice people. Breakfast was fine and fresh . Pets are allowed so when dogs barked in main lobby, you could hear it all the way up to the highest floors. The lobby it’ll is open all the way up. We didn’t have time to go working the hotel. Parking was easy. Remember, you pay $40 a day to park which is crazy to me. Rooms are expensive but what isn’t anymore. Booked through Expedia and they have us a credit for not having the tub we booked. We just wanted what we paid for, nothing more. Hotel did comp Our parking for the mess up but I would have much rather had the tub for my wife.

The parking and area around this property is full of construction and re routed traffic. Very hard to get into. Im in a wheelchair and i had asked for a handicap room but wasnt given one. So no shower or ability to use the bathroom at all for me. Its an old property in need of a facelift.
