Front desk fail
Front desk person at check in was not very informative. Failed to mention we would need a room key to enter building after a certain time. Failed to mention we needed our key card to use the elevator after a certain time. Failed to tell us where the restaurant and bar was. Failed to tell us whitch elevator would take us to our floor. Only certain elevators went to certain floors.

Great stay I will be coming back
Great stay I will be recommending this hotel to family and friends. The valet and front desk staff are very friendly and helpful. They do charge $45 for valet which is a lot but most of the hotels in that area do charge around that same price. The free breakfast is very good !

Christmas visit.
Christmas visit with adult son. Staff persons were all, exceptionally friendly and service driven! It was so pleasant.
I only gave "comfort" a 4/5 stars because I didn't find the bedsheets to be as nice as others, though I for certain would come back to this hotel!!

The front desk doesn’t know we have free valet and told us that we needed to pay until we showed them the itinerary. It is not pretty frustrated. Also, I booked 2 rooms but the front desk did not aware of it.

It was a great stay but the only thing that I’m upset is they charge me twice for a deposit which I think it’s really wrong
