Atheneum Suite Hotel is conveniently located in Greektown. There's a parking structure across the street and valet service is available(pricey but in par with Downtown). I was warmly welcomed by the Bellman who held the door open and directed me to the Reception desk. Check-In was seamless and I was given information on the property. There is a $100 incidental deposit. The lobby is beautiful and has a restaurant/bar. My suite was on the fourth floor. Very clean and well appointed. Plenty of space. Keurig coffee maker, refrigerator(note Fiji water is $5 per bottle) and TVs in both the living room and bedroom. Unique with glass block throughout hotel and in the suites. Hotel is quiet and you can have breakfast delivered to your room along with room service. I love the layout and design and it's a great place for a staycation! read more

I absolutely love this place and have been coming here every Memorial Day since about 2002 (not every year, but just about). What is amazing about this place is the people who work there. They are truly the gems of this place. I see the same people year after year and they truly care for you while you are here. I've gotten excellent advice about where and what to eat, where to visit, and even life advice. From Cassandra who answers the phone, to group sales, to the front desk, to the thorough and patient housekeeper Jasmine, to the really kind van drivers/ concierge (Captain Tony, Cory, and Darryl), to the nice woman at the bar restaurant downstairs. Everyone does an amazing job. This place is a great value also. It's an all suites hotel so you get a lot of space. I love having the sleeping room separate from the living room so if some people in your party want to stay up and chat they can do that while I can have my peace and nap in the bedroom. The sound proofing isn't perfect but it's pretty good for a hotel room. I also love the deep soaking tub. I always arrive earlier than everyone else so I can take a bath right when I get there. There is a shuttle service that is very useful for trips within 5 miles. I've seen many people use it to get to the sports arena nearby. I tend to use it to go to nearby restaurants, dance clubs and the whole foods nearby before all the markets opened downtown. They just went through some serious remodeling and everything looks really good. The location in Greektown makes it walkable to most places. I'm most interested in walking to Hart Plaza, which is about 10 minutes walking. It's also about 10-15 minutes walking to the DAX bus stop. I've even taken the 20 minute walk to the Fox theater because I wanted to see that building. Its best to walk with someone if your going that far and keep your wits about you, but I felt completely safe (as a brown woman who grew up in NYC). I love how much Detroit is growing and changing for the more beautiful. If I had one complaint it would be the music that they play in the lobby. I wish they would play Motown (because of the city we're in), techno or Greek music (because we're in Greektown and the place is called the Atheneum). I feel like that would be more true to where we are, but that's such a small thing, and maybe just me. All in all, I LOVE staying here and will continue to stay here when ever I'm in Detroit. read more

I stayed at the Atheneum Hotel for a girls' weekend celebrating my sister's birthday, and it was such a great experience. We booked a suite and it was huge--plenty of space for all of us. I especially loved the separate lounge area away from the bedroom; it made the room feel even more comfortable. The real highlight for me, though, was the lounge, "The A Bar and Lounge." I couldn't find it listed separately on Yelp, but the bartender (I think his name was Max) is a true mixologist. Every drink he made was superb. I also ordered the chicken tacos, which were flavorful and really delicious. Honestly, I'd come back just to hang out at the bar again! read more

We used to love staying here. Unfortunately the rooms are sadly no longer up to par. The beds are very uncomfortable. When we left we found plaster in our luggage that fell from the ceiling! The shower is very difficult to get in and out of because it is a curved bathtub. If they would update this place it would be a five star place once again. read more

This hotel is so beautiful. An older, well kept, hotel that is so beautiful as soon as you walk in! Everyone is so kind and helpful! We unpacked and went down to have a drink. The bartenders and service were unbelievable. Great drinks and his times! Always smiling and happy..we were going to see Cardi B. They ran and got us cardboard and a marker so we could make a sign because I'm 70 we met so many great people here and on the shuttle to the concert! Great times, great fun for a relaxing, exciting weekend! read more

Upon arrival it was a snowing the valet were very nice and accommodating. They helped us with our bags and escorted us to the lobby. Now on to the lobby it was amazingly decorated for Christmas. The staff were all smiles. We went to the room and immediately came back to the lobby bar and restaurant. I ordered fish and chips my goodness was it good! I the tartar sauce was homemade and the best I've ever had! My bestie ordered the chicken sandwich and she said it was good too. The staff at the bar were so accommodating I can't remember the gentleman s name but he was amazing! read more

I'm pretty sure staying here will induce a David Lynch experience as it has for me. Truly, a bizarre place. There's roughly a 48" diameter pillar in the suite and another one running next to the bed. Glass bricks and mirrors for days. Benches and ledges scattered throughout made out of different materials at different heights from very different time periods. It reminded me of decor and aromas of the late 1980's maybe up to 1991. Nice staff, great valet gentlemen but I would say entirely overhyped. To put it best, the room is like being on an actual film set for an episode of the Golden Girls directed by none other than David Lynch. read more

The staff was great . Rooms great need of upgrading , the shower tub is very antiquated . Have to step into it about a 2 feet step. Tv was about 40" which was very far from the bed Food was not good and coffee was horrible ! The hotel is dirty and needs cleaned I advise owner to do a remodel and make it more high end read more

Absolutely not worth the money. We were there (in a premium suite) and never once got housekeeping. There was also a random maintenance door next to the shower that was open the entire time and had a sketchy dirty towel in it. We treated ourselves to an upgraded suite but it was NOT worth the money. Would never stay there again. read more

Whatever you do, try not to get room 412, or most likely any of the *12 rooms. The tv looks like a postage stamp, there is no seating aside from a desk chair, and the TV is basically unwatchable because it's small, and 20' away from the bed. Yes, I measured. Aside from that, the wall heater sounds like a loud broken down car, and the room is cold regardless of how high you set the temp to. Not sure why they put me in an accessible room, when one wasn't requested, and I had been looking forward to the tub. So disappointing. read more

Absolute amazing hotel! We booked this hotel fairly last minute and I was very impressed with the staff, the food and our room. Right when we pulled up, we were greeted with the valet. They opened the door and asked if they could take our luggage. The service was very friendly and extremely fast. When we got to our room, we were wowed by the size, layout and all the accommodations. They had a great room service menu and the food was unbelievable. Amazing hotel and fantastic staff! read more

I had a splendid time during my stay at the Athenaeum Hotel. I was only there for two nights but that was long enough for me to get a good feel of the place. I arrived the evening of my first night and the check-in process was a breeze. The lobby was beautiful and included plenty of seating as well as a nice bar. My room itself was beautifully decorated, had all the amenities I needed, and the view was nice. The only issue I ran into was the hot water in the sink wasn't working, it was spitting out water really choppy and wouldn't get warm. No worries, except for my face being cold when I washed it. During my stay I ordered room service both nights because I was so busy during the stay that it was the best way to go when I was finally able to grab dinner. The first night I got mac and cheese and a salad and the mac was on point. The next night I ordered the salmon and it was delicious. I'll also add that the valet was quick and everyone from the receptionist to the gentleman that delivered my food to the room were lovely. I would definitely stay again. read more

What a beautiful experience we had staying at Atheneum Suite Hotel!! We stayed for 5 nights for a funeral. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure your stay is so pleasant! They are friendly and so helpful. Our house keeping staff member Jasmine left us a kind note and was always so helpful and friendly. Cory, the door man was also always so happy, helpful and kind. He consistently went out of his way to make each day stress free. He always put a smile on our face. Angie, at The Symposium restaurant was also so kind and helpful. The staff in the restaurant were fantastic too. Eric our server is a sommelier. His knowledge of wine was incredible. This hotel is so fortunate to have such an amazing staff!! The lobby was warm, welcoming and large. It is attractively decorated. The rooms are very clean and spacious. We loved the walkways to the rooms which felt like an atrium. The room has a refrigerator, coffee maker, iron and ironing board, which was so helpful for such a long stay. The food and service in the bar was outstanding. I highly recommend eating in the hotels main restaurant, The Symposium. The food and service were a 10!! It's a meal I will never forgot. I highly recommend this hotel!! read more

Atheneum Suite Hotel - The Symposium - Hotels Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

I found myself staying here for 3 nights for a conference in downtown Detroit. I had a fine stay here but one that falls somewhat short of a five-star experience. First, the positives. The room is absolutely massive. I don't recall having stayed in a room of that size in a very, very long time. Second, cleanliness. The room was well-cleaned, and the bathtub was clean and inviting enough that I ended up enjoying a relaxed bath twice in the span of three days - something I rarely get to do at my house. Third, the presence of a courtesy shuttle that was available to take hotel guests anywhere within a short distance of the hotel. Fourth and finally, they have an in-house restaurant. I had dinner on the first night that I got there, and it was great. The spicy chicken sandwich at $15 is one of the best bargains that I have recently come across in an era of rampant inflation. Along with taxes and tips, my HUGE dinner which likely added a full inch to my ever-growing waistline, came to only $28! Now, the reasons for taking off a star. First, the staff could have been more polite. I found the shuttle drivers in general, but especially the one I had on my very last day to be quite brusque. Also, the lady who checked me in on the first day should have indicated that there was going to be a hold for $300 - $100 per each night of stay - but I don't believe she had pointed that out. It is only when I came back to the reception puzzled by why I had been charged more than $800 for my stay that she informed me of that rule. Second, they missed my wake-up call on the very first night that I stayed at the hotel. I had asked for a wake-up call at 8:00 but I don't believe that ever came. The third and final point is a minor one, but I am noting here in my review. For the second morning that I was here, I requested an in-room breakfast for 8:00 a.m. The breakfast did not come at 8:00 but it came closer to 8:15 seriously inconveniencing me. The person who brought up my food indicated that she was there at 7:55 but because I was not yet out of bed, I don't think I ever heard her knock. However, in my estimation, she should not have waited until 8:15 to bring the meal but should have delivered the meal at 8:00, as was requested. Finally, I had used up the slip in my room to request the breakfast that morning. Even though I stayed for one more night, the hotel did not provide me with another slip on which I could put in an order for in-room breakfast for the last morning I was there. All in all, while I had a fine stay at The Atheneum and would be perfectly happy to consider staying here again, to the extent that the hotel wants to get outstanding reviews from guests - as opposed to ones that are merely good- it could train its staff better and nudge them/ encourage them to be more polite and courteous to their guests. read more

My husband wanted to have a quick stay-cation and booked us a room at Atgeneum Suite Hotel. We were both rather excited when we arrived. The lobby is huge and we'll decorated with plenty of places to sit. We were able to check in early, which was nice. We opted to park our car in a pay to park lot kitty corner from the hotel, as it was only $12/day versus $35 for valet. We headed up to our room, which was quite large. We had a separate living room with a TV, and a king bed with TV. The bathroom was large, and a little dated if I'm being honest. As we walked out of the hotel on our way to find some food, we noticed a hand full of people checking in. Still, it did not at all appear to be booked up. When we got back, we enjoyed the large bath and watched TV. So far, so good. The bed was uncomfortable and somewhat lumpy in areas, but we did our best to make it work. Then, at 11:30pm, we were awoken by a very loud group of folks that had checked into the room directly next to us, that shared a wall. They were yelling, banging doors, and whatnot. It sounded like they were in our room with us. It was insufferable. They did not quiet down until about 4am. My husband was so upset from the lack of sleep due to the folks on the other side of the wall. We tried for a few hours of sleep, then left around 6:30am. It's sad that the hotel staff decided to place those folks right next door when it was obvious that other rooms were vacant on the same floor. We will avoid this place in the future. read more

Atheneum Suite Hotel - Hotel lobby - Hotels Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

We have stayed at this venue several times over the years. It is a nice, unique hotel, centrally located if you are attending a sporting event in Detroit. The rooms are all essentially suites. Very large and plenty of room. As far as we know, most have a separate sitting area with couch, chair and TV, away from a large bedroom which also has a TV. Bathrooms are nice with extra large tub and showers. The rooms are a little dated in some aspects. This time, it does appear they have installed new carpet, beds and appointments, since the last time we stayed. Beds are very comfortable and the rooms are squeaky clean as is this entire property. Some areas in the rooms could use a refresh of new paint. There are 2 restaurant options in this Hotel. Symposia is a little more formal/upscale. Then there is the A Bar adjacent to the lobby. This was remodeled a few years back and is very nice and gets busy. We chose to eat in The A Bar as we wanted to watch a Basketball Game. Our server was kind of enough to put that game on for us, so we could watch it while we ate. ( They could use a couple more TV's in different areas) We started with the Chips and Salsa, a tasty cheese blend that was very tasty. Not your typical queso. We then ordered the Wings with Buffalo Sauce. These were nice size, meaty wings, good quality and taste. We also had the seasoned Shrimp with toasted baguette. The Shrimp were nice size, perfectly prepared with a mild spiced,zesty seasoning. We would order all of these items again. Our server Nick was phenomenal. Very personable and attentive. Worth checking out if looking for a nice play to stay while in Detroit. read more

I stayed here for a brief work trip, but had a phenomenal stay! It was super late when I arrived, but checking in was a breeze. I walked through the spacious lobby with a very high ceiling, and loved the tunes they were playing. I went up to my room, and loved how open the floors are, especially near the elevators. It's not narrow extra bright (or dim) corridors like some hotels. I absolutely loved how spacious my suite was. The bathroom and tub were nice and big, and the office desk was nestled next to a rather cool and giant pillar in my room. My bed was huge and comfy! I worked out for the one full day I was there -- when I asked about the gym they have, they said "it's not really a gym..." but yes it is. They undersold it! They have a bunch of weights, cardio machines, and a bench. Don't really need anything else unless it's gonna be crowded in there -- and I was the only one there. Got a good workout in! Now, it may be tricky to find, because it doesn't stand out like fitness centers typically do -- just know it's on the second floor. Checkout was as easy as checking in... I was sad to have to leave, but I really loved the vibe of the place. They have a barber shop and other things on the first floor, by the way! If I could suggest an improvement, it would be for accessible water stations throughout -- there was one in the gym, but it came with the paper cones and it was still a faucet, not filter. read more

The hotel was clean and well maintained. I always make an effort to be cordial and friendly with the staff wherever we stay, knowing that, generally, you get what you give. Upon arrival, my encounter with check-in seemed rather cold and indifferent. On to the room, it was huge! Clean, spacious, and possibly recently renovated. Impressive on first look. However, it is not senior friendly. The Grand Canyon step into the bathtub is nothing less than treacherous. Additionally, there are steps to get to the sleeping area. For those who have trips to the bathroom during the night, this can be somewhat of a hazard. The front room area is large with two workstations, sounds wonderful, correct? But there are no readily accessible plug ins and a complete absence of USB plugs anywhere. We had to request towels be sent up 2 of the 3 days we stayed. They were delivered to the room quickly, but the person delivering, again, did not exude much hospitality and seemed rather annoyed that they had to make this effort. Optics are good, but overall, for me, this property is not one I would stay at again. read more

Fabulous hotel!!! I didn't actually realize it was a "suite" hotel, I was rushing while I booked. So, I was extremely surprised to see my HUGE luxurious room!!!! The decor and vibe of this hotel is amazing... It was beautifully decorated for Christmas and looked just fabulous. The staff even offered to photograph me and my friend! So nice. I ordered room service two times, and both times it was quickly delivered with outstanding service. The food was AMAZING! I went down to the desk the morning of checkout and was easily granted late checkout. I should also add, my valet and check in process was under 5 minutes. Overall, the location of this hotel is perfect in terms of getting around by foot or car. I loved the energy of the hotel which felt professional and elegant. I felt very safe and secure in my room which was fully equipped to meet my needs. There was no robe though, and I was sad about that! The tub also wasn't working right, I couldn't get water to not drain out of the tub. So much for a bath... but hopefully that doesn't usually happen. Still giving 5 stars, because the experience was phenomenal and I WILL be back!! read more

There a lot to like here: - Excellent location, right in the heart of the city. Walking distance to all of the stadiums, Greektown casino, restaurants and businesses. - Easy parking through Valet, or self parking right across the street. Be careful what you leave in the car as a guest's car had been broken into in the garage the night we checked out (they apparently left their possessions in clear view) - Great room size and amenities - A divided bedroom area with a separate living room with a sofa. A separate TV in each. The view was fine. The bathroom is huge (plenty of counter space) and the shower pressure and temperature were excellent. - While there is no on-site market and the water in the room was $5/bottle, there is a great little convenience market just two blocks away. We were able to get drinks and snacks. - Pricing is consistent with the area. The weekend we were there, football, baseball and hockey were are in-play on the same weekend so the town was active, and the prices a bit higher than normal. Booking was easy on the direct site - We booked through Expedia. - Service was good throughout, and security is ever-present. We felt safe during our stay. While the main restaurant was closed, they did offer room service, seating for meals served near the bar, and there are so many great restaurants in the area you really don't have to eat on-site. read more

Tucked into Greektown with great staff! Good food! Nice bar, easy to get to, and stay!!!

This is a decent sized hotel in the heart of Greek town. The ballroom is a decent sized and can accommodate a large group. I haven't ever stayed in a room here as of yet but have only been here for weddings. It's has an interesting blend of old school wall murals with modern day globe lights and high backed lobby chairs and more contemporary flooring as well. The staff were attentive and friendly as were the bartenders. read more

We stayed at the Atheneum last weekend for a family wedding and had a great time. The main reason was the STAFF - they were excellent ! Everyone was great - valets, bellmen, waitresses, front desk staff, maintenance, housekeeping, managers, etc. I can honestly say that the Atheneum had the best staff of any hotel I've ever been to - they were friendly, helpful, efficient, and courteous - and they went out of their way to make sure we had a great time. I want to single Corey out as he went out of his way to help us and he was awesome. :-) The hotel restaurant (the one in the lobby - where the bar is) was great. Best pancakes I've ever had! And we loved all of our breakfasts and lunches there (we ate dinner elsewhere). Great cocktails, too - especially the Moscow mules! The only issue we had was the first night - our room got very warm (and I'm a woman in menopause but it just wasn't me - my teen sons were hot, too). We told the maintenance department and they fixed it right away. The hotel could probably use a renovation - but it was clean, the rooms had a lot of space (lots of room to move around), we liked the decor, and everything was great. Just could use a bit of touching up to make it look a bit more polished. read more

This hotel is clean with very spacious rooms. It is within walking distance to all the sporting venues and Hollywood Casino. The staff were super friendly. I did remove a star because the room was extremely hot and the air conditioner did not work. I did see another review that mentioned the same issue, so I believe it is a problem in multiple rooms. read more

Darnell was the best hotel employee I've ever met! This man deserves a raise! Hotel and staff were great too!

Very overpriced for the quality of the rooms and the "amenities". Many places throughout the hotel and rooms that were in need of repair and or renovation. The air conditioning didn't work in many of the suites in our group. The refrigerators did not work, not even the ones in the penthouse suite. I had to argue with the Valet when I was leaving because they brought me the wrong vehicle a wanted to tell me it was the one that matched my ticket. Ice is in no way an amenity as it's been standard at all hotels for 1/2 a century but they have so little to offer they list it as if that really sets them apart from the rest. The counter and restaurant staff were excellent, great service, always smiling, and willing to help with whatever was needed. I do n plan on ever staying here again. read more

OMG this place has changed since I first visited back in 2007 - just wow! the lobby the bar and the amazing bar staff are so great! I absolutely will stay here the next time im in Detroit!

Athena the mighty Goddess of Wisdom and War needs to blot down to Greektown for some surgery to the Atheneum. I'm a local Detroiter, old enough to remember when this hotel was built. I met P Diddy AND Biggie Smalls in the lobby in the late 90's! It was my first jacuzzi suite experience as a young dating gal (no, not with P Diddy nor Biggie). The A Bar with bartender Merv was the spot! Ahhhh, fond and fun memories. So when the bf suggested we get a room after the Katt Williams concert, It took me back to the good ole days when downtown Detroit was more like Atlanta, less like...... Portland? The lobby is remodeled and looks good. That's where it ends. The newly renovated bar was closed at 11:30 on a Saturday night (advertised to be open til 1am). Room service (also advertised to be open til 1 am), just never bothered to answer the phone, despite the front desk assuring us they would answer. We scrambled down the street to Golden Fleece before they closed at midnight, where they graciously served us at 5 mins to close. But the room?! The rooms are in desperate need of renovation. The wood furniture in the suite was so worn. I think I recognized high heel scuff marks I may have imparted back in '97! The hot tub worked well and I was happy about that. A nice touch would be to include special pillows for the tub and robes, maybe even with some Grecian gold detail? - this after the remodel of course. Look, I want the Atheneum to rule downtown again, victorious over all of the franchises invading from outside. But until that day comes, either close some of those raggedy rooms, or offer deep discounts. We still paid too dollar and received both service and quality befitting "commoners." read more

We stayed Nov 6-7th at the Atheneum in Detroit. We had traveled for the MCBA state finals at Ford Field. The hotel was close and a good price for the area. We stayed on the 6th floor. We stayed in a double queen suite. The room was spacious. When you enter there is a room with a couch, coffee table, two side tables, leather like chair, dresser with large screen TV, desk with chair and still a lot of space. Three lamps plus overhead lighting. The couch does not fold out but was big enough my 12 year old slept on it. Front desk was quick to send up a sheet, pillow, and blanket when asked. There is a mini fridge inside the dresser under the TV. There is a glass block wall between the living room space and the main hallway. Interesting but was a bit disconcerting when you would see shadows walking by and it kept the room from ever being dark when you slept in there. There is a hallway with a door so you can shut off the two sides. Hallway has a large mirrored closet with ironing board and iron. Also a wall safe with key and three hangers. There is a shelf with a mini coffee maker and mirror. The bathroom was right there. It was quite large. Had a huge tub (not whirlpool) and a good shower. Strong shower head and lots of hot water. Only one sink so there was tons of counter space. But the wall around the bathroom to the sleeping area is glass block again. Thus when you turned on the lights in the bathroom (of which the switches are in the hallway, not actually inside the bathroom) it lights up the sleeping area. Did not thrill my 16 year old when I got up earlier than she did. And you can see the person in the showers shadow. I don't care, but might be awkward if you are staying for a work thing with a coworker. Their are 4 steps down to the sleeping area. The bed was firm, nice sheets. One night stand between the beds. Two lamps. Another dresser with a second large screen tv. Another leather like chair. A HUGE floor to ceiling window. The color scheme was a nice blue and brown. The carpet was plush. The lobby was nice with lots of seating. Lots of elevators, collection of 4 so they were quick. There is a bar in the lobby. They had food but we did not eat there. The hotel is a great location. We could walk to a ton of restaurants. Casino was super close. Even Ford field was a doable walk. There is a parking structure across the street. $25 for the night. They also offered valet for $28. read more

stayed here 4/19 - 4/20 for a local event. the location was perfect for us which was the only thing that was perfect about this hotel . check in was ok - daily valet was a bit overpriced at 35 dollars and the bellman waited for us to unload our vehicle before assisting-not cool. the suite was nice in appearance but the bed was not a king size as advertised -it was a queen and not comfortable either. the people staying in the room next to ours also made lots of noise and had the tv blasting until 2am. the staff we encountered were somewhat standoffish too like it was such an imposition for them. for a full service hotel its lacking in hospitality and amenties like a free breakfast or at least free bottled water - the water that was in the fridge was 5 dollars for a 20oz bottle - we didnt drink it. next time we will research better to avoid hotels like this. read more

Booked this hotel and even though I read about reviews of the hotel being old and outdated. I truly enjoyed my stay of 5 days. The rooms are nice and big, bathroom is big and nice too. Cleaning services are excellent and beds are comfortable. I liked that there is 4 elevators in the hotel... everything is walking distance. There is shuttle service to the stadium which is great. Staff is very cordial and friendly. Great place to stay! Cons-- the noise from the street and I had a noisy air conditioning/heater. Thank God, I brought some melatonin and slept like a baby every night . I will definitely stay in this hotel again. Smoke free too. Price could be a bit cheaper per night just because the hotel is not updated. read more

Great personality read more

No idea why the bad reviews. My room was flawlessly clean, and really cute, and the whole hotel had a great vibe. If someone's upset it's loud... it's literally in the most popular section of downtown, known for its night life. Not sure how you can really be that upset if said night life keeps you up when you know it's right there. That said, I didn't hear anything excessive when I was there. Only complication with the hotel was booking a block group rate-- they're really tight on their requirements for it (non-refundable, 2-night minimum), which made it hard for people in my group. Other than that, I would absolute stay there again. Highly recommend the king room end unit. read more

From booking to arrival the service was perfect. Every staff member I came in touch with was professional and courteous. Valet service was on point. My gripe would be that there was no breakfast offered other than room service. I never ate in the hotel restaurant although I should have because I was challenged to find top notch dining in walking distance. My room was big with two televisions and a enormous shower. Bathroom was dated but clean and met my standards. Room service addressed my room daily like clockwork. If I ever frequent Detroit again, I know where to stay. read more

I stayed at this hotel with my boyfriend last weekend. I went to the lobby to find out about local restaurants. On my way back to my room, as I was still in the lobby level another elevator came down. Mr. Darnell who was going to get on the elevator looked at me and said I am going to ride with you beautiful. I was not going to bother myself to post a review, but looking at the other people's reviews, I see that Darnell has been mentioned in other harassing comment. My beauty is for my boyfriend and not for Darnell. I had to stop my boyfriend from teaching Darnell the lesson of his life, but the least I can do is to confirm other people's reviews of harassing behavior of Darnell. Be aware people .. read more

My husband and I stayed there June 26th 2021 for part of our anniversary. Room service was very nice and fast..but we got sick about an hour after we ate. Also, there were 4 wedding parties staying in the hotel that weekend. After midnight, hotel staff basically gave up on keeping anyone quiet, so it was loud all night with screaming and partying on 3 floors. We checked in at 3pm and we checked out at around 4am. We also found something smeared on the inside of the lamp shade and then what I hope was water coming from the window frames...We paid 500 dollars for that room and it was a waste. Called three times over the course of a week to speak to management about it, so far all calls have been dodged or met with "our manager is very busy, can we take your number to call you back?" With no call backs.. Don't bother staying here, it's not worth your time or money. read more
