The ice machine didn't work on the floor and when I used my restroom there was like a rubberband that you would wear with braces that had some red on it? Could have been blood, but not sure. Otherwise, room was nice, good climate control for a comfortable temp and the staff at the front desk was very good.

I was downgraded from a suite to a Jr suite and was not told about it. I had been planning this trip for a couple weeks to propose to my then girlfriend and I had surgery the night before so it really felt like a slap in the face, especially since we were not reimbursed for the difference in room cost. The only person that was nice was Andrea at the front desk. She tried to make everything right, but I’m not sure you can fix things like that when you’re not willing to either eat the room cost or pay me the difference but she did try. no thanks to her manager. I was told they overbooked for their suites and I was bumped down because I booked through Expedia. I will say that again I was downgraded because I booked through Expedia.
