Stay was ok! Room was very nice, spacious as well. Appreciated the little kitchenette during our stay. Service from check in was not very friendly. I felt like I was just a number and they just wanted me to pass through.
We asked for extra pillows after we returned from dinner, and the lady at the front desk gave us a facial reaction like we were crazy, and then she said they had no pillows. We also asked for a blow dryer, because we assumed the room would be equipped with one, but now I understand to never assume things.

Not this time
I could have enjoyed it if the hot water had worked. I couldn't shower because there was no HOT WATER on the 31st floor.
The receptionist ( boy) did not show empathy /remorseless which was disappointing having been staying at the hotel since 2008

Great location. Friendly staff. Doing some nice renovations to suites. No fan in bathroom which made it very muggy. Be careful as the 2 bedroom suites are right next to elevator shaft and as this is an older building you could hear the wind tunnel effect throughout the night. I had earplugs so no problem. Nice pool and work out area. Would stay again because if price and location.

The room was very nice and spacious, clean bed and living area. Shower could have been cleaner. The front desk staff was incredible and very friendly.
I Was very disappointed with the kitchenette aspect as there were zero utensils or anything to use and the “hotel” didn’t provide any. No restaurant, bar or room service or even an ice machine, although there are restaurants near by. Fitness centre was good but is in a sub basement and would be better if there was a window of any kind. I expected more room amenities, and would have liked if the folks cleaning the room had replaced the toiletries. I think it’s important to note that this is no longer a hotel and they are transitioning to rental units so be prepared for limited hotel services.

Misrepresentation
Hotels. com bills this as a hotel. Once a hotel years ago, they are now transitioning to be a long term stay residence. No amenities - not even hangers to hang clothes in closet. No ice machines, anywhere. Couldn't even check out of hotel and leave bag in locked room in lobby until after lunch - as in most other hotels I've stayed at. I was truly disappointed!!!

He responded with its in the fine print! We asked what fine print and he was never able to show us. Terroble front staff and hotel stay was worst. So kverpriced for a bed. Dont go!
