Stay somewhere else
The pictures on the website for this hotel makes it look like the rooms are glamourous. They are not. They are out and out ugly. The pictures lie. Also, the elevators are like walking into a cave - very, very dark, and you have to wait forever for them to come and to get where you are going. Only 2 elevators. While a man might feel OK staying there, I certainly would not recommend a woman staying there, especially because of the dark elevators. Way overpriced for the quality. My room was not ready when I got there and I had to wait in the tiny lobby they have for quite some time before a room was ready, even though I got there about 4:30pm, after their official check-in time. There were a whole bunch of people waiting with me in the lobby for a room. That alone should indicate a problem. Though it is conveniently located, do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else. I'm a 61 year old professional male and know the difference between good and bad. This is not good.
Blah!
Stayed there last year over New Years. The lobby was extremely hot. The elevators took up to 30 Minutes. There was left over food in the refridgerator from the person who stayed there last. And the cleaning staff only cleaned half the room.
