A nice convenient place to stay
A nice, convenient place to stay which was close to everything we wanted to do. But only 1 of the 3 elevators was working so we had long wait times for the one elevator.

Jonathan at the front desk was wonderful, every employee we came across was friendly and helpful. Only annoyance was the fact only one out of the three elevators was working..but this did not make or break the stay! The proximity and ease of access to everything makes it worth it!

Parking was $55.00. Too expensive in addition room charges. The front desk staff was rude and under staffed. The hotel was not worth the price we paid.

Fantastic location and an ideal hotel for family trips. The free breakfast buffet and bar were a great bonus. The only drawback was having just one elevator in operation.

Find a different place to stay.
Honestly, this hotel cost way more than it is worth.
Outdated rooms, lobby and pool. They only had 1 working elevator while I was there and the stairs were difficult to locate.
Pool was freezing cold.
Drink choices in the bar were terrible, stunningly terrible.
Super disappointed in this hotel.

Get the Suite!
I have been all around the world and this is my FAVORITE hotel. The happy hour snacks were WELL worth the price. Not to mention the suites. The only downside is the parking is $50 a day. So that was a shock.

Ok but I wouldn’t stay again
Only one elevator was working when we arrived and was not fixed while we were there, the key cards kept deactivating, it was very difficult to get in and out of the parking garage because of the key cards, the food was ok, staff were friendly for the most part, parking is so expensive! It was ok for a couple of nights but I would not stay there again.

4-star location; 2-star hotel
Sitting at the base of the S. Congress bridge and on the side of the river closest to shopping, the location couldn't be beat, but the hotel left a lot to be desired. Only one elevator (of 3) worked with no way to access interior stairs from the lobby, house-keeping didn't clean our room until the fourth of a five day stay, our room smelled musty, the pull-out sofa was stained, and the wall-paper was also stained and peeling.
