I give this hotel one star because it had free in-room Internet access, but that's it! I was here on business and will say that their conference rooms and attached food service are good, but I would not return to this property for pleasure!
They put me in a room with virtually no soundproofing directly across the elevators. Therefore, I could hear not only the beeping of the elevators, but also other guests in their high heels as they disembarked onto the marble-floored elevator foyer, talking and/or laughing loudly. I had to put in my earplugs in order to get any sleep.
Bathroom amenities were provided but the containers declared that they were made in China - um, who wants to know THAT after the past few years' of food- and product-tainting scares?
When I walked in my first night the room smelled of sweat - as if it hadn't been used since DC's last swampy summer season. I put my change-the-sheets card on the bed the next morning. Second night, no more sweaty smell on the bed but the detergent smell was a tad overpowering.
The closet did not get much lighting, and the shelving fixture in there was breaking. The hanger rod, thank goodness, was still holding strong. I followed the instructions on the in-closet safe, but it would not work. There was not a single full-length mirror to be found in the room.
The crowning moment was when, on the second night, I was greeted by a baby cockroach crawling up the closet door. I took care of it with the bottom of my shoe. If I had not been so tired I would have asked to be moved to another room on a higher floor (I was on the 3rd).
