4/10 Fair

Room had red stains over carpet, had to get a room swap. Requesting this was challenging but eventually occured. Swapped room had A/C issues and maintenance had to get to rectify. Cleaners didnt replenish toilet paper or tissues often. Had to request from house keeping team. Found housekeeping team a bit delayed with getting to attending to our room during our stay. Found alot of errors on billing with Valet charges. Most times with Valet, had to collect my own car from the ramp and park it at times. Most staff were generally pleasant to deal with during the stay. The staff member who stood out the most was Juneric. He was very supportive during the room change, assisting with Valet. His attention to detail, work ethic and willingness to go above and beyond is highly commendable.

Good hotel. Excellent staff and great service. Be convenient location. The lobby is very spacious with many cozy corners. Good dining. Second time using this hotel, and love it. The only downside, is the construction sites around, however this is temporary. Other than that, highly recommended.

We were put into a disability room and not told. The entry and exiting of the room is not clear and took us a few minutes and everything in the room was obviously set lower for someone in a wheel chair. It wasn’t to bad but it certainly would have been nice to have at least been told how to enter and exit
