I have stayed at this hotel many times - the biggest reason is location. It is very convenient if you are visiting the University - it's close to central campus and not far from north campus. My issues with this hotel are multiple...
First, I think it is certainly overpriced. The shower/bathtub is very, and I mean very small - oh and if you're not careful, you will likley hit your elbow on the soap dish after washing your hair because there is truly just not enough room to move.
Another issue is the staff - and this is not all staff - but there are several that are not friendly. Namely, one of the hostesses at Victor's (the onsite restaurant) - who sat me without saying one word. Perhaps she was having a bad day, and if it ended there, that would have been fine. However, there was also the disrespectful bartender who actually refused to serve me a glass of red wine because I indicated that I was going to take it back to my room. (Apparently, this is a no-no per the owner..). In any case, it was handled inappropriately and with complete disregard for the guest. I could go on, but will only mention my latest incident. On my past visit I left my glasses... I realized they might be there and made the call to the hotel once I got home. Needless to say, the gentleman that I spoke with said they were there and asked how I would like them sent back to me as well as how I was going to pay. After we determined that he would charge my credit card, I asked whether or not they would have made the effort to call me, and he replied with "I'm not sure what the policy is around lost and found". Hmmm... you don't? I left the hotel this AM and now it's 9 hours later.. you clearly found the glasses, but weren't going to call and let me know? Interesting... and I must say that I expect more from a "premium property".
Bottom line is.... If you are looking for a place where you don't care about the cost and don't have to interact with staff much, this might be the place to stay. For the rest of you folks that are looking for a nice place, with a considerate and respectable staff, who actually appreciate that you are staying at their property, I suggest you move on.
