tl;dr - Great but lacking.
I’m always amazed at the choices made by new ownership of an old building. There’s always a Frankensteinian element present in the finished product. Many mysteries exist in this weird building; I’ll stick to the highlights. This building was built with six elevators. It NEEDS six elevators, but there are only three in use for some reason. So, on every floor, there are three unusable elevator doors. During my stay here, virtually every use of the elevators was accompanied by a wait of several minutes, like five or more. The other three doors are still present and visible, reminding guests that this was a choice.
My biggest issue was with the staff. The only person that seemed to like his job was the doorman. He always had a smile and helped when he could. It was nice to see him every day. Virtually everyone else, however, seemed to hold at least some contempt for both their position and the guests they are paid to service. I needed assistance a few times throughout my stay, and when it was requested, I was met with resistance, objections, and a surprising amount of delays every time.
On a more positive note, the gym was complete and clean, if a little isolated. The dinner theater built into the hotel adds a neat and convenient tourist activity. It’s fun.
In closing, it wasn’t terribly expensive place to stay, but I’m still not sure I got my money’s worth.
