"Room was clean, front desk staff was very friendly and helpful! "

"Ordered a room with a hot tub that didn't work and never got fixed. Manager said he would get it fixed or change our room - never happened. The hot water dribbled out of the faucet, while the 2 sinks and the shower worked fine. Door had gaps (up to 1/2") around it. Both televisions had to be fixed to play. The thermostat on the heater did not shut it off. The floor transition strip to the hot tub area was a trip hazard, and they had to replace the hair dryer. On the 3rd day of our 4 night stay, the assistant manager (Suki?) agreed to refund me the difference between a regular room and our room. He gave me a form that shows a refund for the difference - $164.42. Imagine my anger when I saw my credit charges, and they took it off, AND put it back on my bill - charging me the full amout that I had booked. I left early on the 26th, and no one was at the front desk to give me a final receipt. I'm a retired Quality Manager as well as having been a Secret Shopper and have dealt with customer satisfaction all my life. I have to say the manager has a very poor attirude towards customers and it showed in his interactions with customers as well as his facial expressions and body language. Most of the staff acted similarly. I have to admit that the man who checked us in, and the assistant manager were very congenial. I lived in the area 1/2 of my life and passed this hotel many times over the years. My assessment then as it is now - It's a place I wouldn't want to stay at."

"After 150 years in operation, you’d expect this hotel to have mastered hospitality. It hasn’t. As an Expedia Platinum member with 40+ stays this year across top hotels in NY, LA, Miami, and Europe, I understand the difference between policy and service. This property fails on the latter. My fiancée arrived ahead of me for check-in. The hotel called me to verify her identity, which I confirmed immediately. Despite that, they still refused to check her in, leaving her waiting in the lobby for nearly two hours. No urgency, no courtesy, no effort to recover, despite a time-sensitive schedule for a VIP event at UBS Arena. The next morning didn’t improve. I requested a late checkout to have breakfast on property. After a 20-minute discussion with a manager, they granted a minimal extension but failed to mention breakfast ends at 10am. We arrived expecting service, only to be turned away and left waiting for lunch. That’s not a minor oversight, it’s a lack of operational awareness. For a hotel that leans on a 150-year legacy, the service feels rigid and disconnected. At every stage, there was an opportunity to elevate the experience—and it was missed."

"Fresh bagels; nice place."
