I join in the other positive reviews of this property, although I feel there were a few oversights that could have been avoided.
I booked one of the corner rooms, which, in spite of the name, isn't really in the building's corners. The building isn't rectangular, but instead is sort of a polygon that is almost rectangular. At one point, the south wall of the building contains a shallow bend at about a thirty-degree angle. The corner rooms (with room numbers ending in 05) are on both sides of this elbow, resulting in suites that are shaped sort of like a piece of pie, with the narrow end of the suite (or vertex) by the door, and with the walls fanning out from that point. You first walk into a dining room/conference room, with a table that can seat six. As you walk through the dining room, the bedroom with a king bed is on the left, and the living room is on the right.
The corner suite is very spacious, so much so that it seems somewhat empty. There is a lot of uncovered floor space, but I didn't mind it at all.
I agree with the other reviews that have commented on ineffective air conditioning. The A/C unit isn't the typical unit built into an outside wall. Instead, it's contained in an interior wall by the bathroom, with the air vents blowing into each room at the ceiling. According to the room descriptions on the hotel's web site, the corner rooms boast an adjustable thermostat, which the other room types don't seem to have. Still, adjusting the temperature didn't have any effect. The room was clammy no matter what I did. I called the front desk, which told me that they'd send the engineer, but nobody came. I then realized that the bedroom and living room each contained one casement window that could swing open, and this cooled the room quickly. (During the summer, this would not be an option.) The A/C was also quite loud, with a deep, low frequency rumble. With the bedroom door closed, the sound level was tolerable, and it may have even masked some other, more objectionable noises.
I did not hear noises from any adjacent rooms, with the possible exception of one bang. Either the construction makes the place quiet, or I had well-behaved neighbors.
The carpet in my room had a lot of pulled threads (very large and obvious, given the type of weave used in the carpet) and a cigarette burn which all should have been repaired.
Although the printed TV channel listing indicates that some HD channels are available on the flat panel TVs, the on-screen channel guide doesn't list those channels, and they weren't available. All that was available were analog channels, which would have been fine, except that they've been "stretched" into wide-screen mode. The resulting distortion was unpleasant, and it couldn't be changed, because the manufacturer's remote controls have been replaced with LodgeNet remotes, which don't contain the appropriate buttons.
The pillows were high, so if you're not used to that, bring your own if you can.
The gym is small, but the fitness equipment (all Precor) is top-of-the-line, gym quality, not the sort of junk you often find in hotel fitness rooms.
The breakfast selection was top-notch, and the staff was generally friendly and quite helpful.
