Great city views, modern room but misleading amenities

3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 31 Jul 2024via mobile
We booked this hotel very last minute for one night as a quick and local weekend getaway. The hotel in itself is very compact, and the staff were friendly.

The room was clean and comfortable. We booked a King room with a Balcony. The breeze that we had on the balcony combined with the city view was amazing. The bathroom had a seperate tub and shower arrangement and was very modern.

One of the draws that this hotel had was the pool. However like many reviewers have previously stated, the pool is not really the hotels but it is actually owned by another business that operates ontop of the hotel. Hotel patrons can use the pool, only when the business is open, and the business is only open on Weekends and select days of the week. Unfortunately, due to this we were not even able to see the pool due to this.

We would probably book here again due to the affordability of a balcony city view king room. However the fact that they are misleading patrons with pool access is concerning.

Every travel site lists this hotel as having a pool. However, the pool is part of a club that is sort-of affiliated with the hotel and sort-of its own thing. No children allowed, exorbitant cover charges, specific dress codes. None of this is really spelled out when you book.

Rooms are fine. Good views of the skyline.

Elevators need to be ripped out and re-installed. It feels like a theme park ride with how loud and bumpy they are. Many many hail mary's were said when riding up and down.

This room was very filthy and outdated. The cleaning lady refused to clean it so I had to go to Target and clean it myself. Just horrible
