We attended a wedding last weekend and stayed at this hotel with other out of town guests in a block of rooms. We had a great deal of trouble getting someone to answer the phone or return a call just to make our reservations a few weeks in advance. Upon arrival, we met up with other family members and visited... More

Yes it was woefully understaffed, unfortunately during you stay we were unusually busy with an admitted under qualified staff, that is with the hotel not hotel industry. Since you stay we added a new front office manager and two assist desk managers who come to us with a great deal of experience. All can do is offer our sincere apologies... More

While standing in lines for close to 40 minutes everytime, I did not even hear one positive experience. Hotel staff are full of excuses and really don't care. The only great experience I had was the doorman. Very much a... More
